Abstract:

A complex and brazen attack by militants on a military barracks in Nampala in central Mali illustrated effective cooperation and coordination between various militant sub-groups. Worryingly for the Malian military, this attack echoes a previous defeat, in 2012, just before the Malian military collapsed entirely and subsequently rebelled.
