In the latest episode of Fractured we explore the complex security crisis in Mali and the Sahel region, focusing on the impact on civilians, the role of Wagner's Africa Corps, and the broader geopolitical implications. Featuring journalist Monika Prończuk, we shed light on human rights abuses and regional migration. We ask about the international accountability for human rights abuses and war crimes. Since the Africa Corps is now part of the Russian Ministry of Defence, should the Russian government be held accountable for their actions?
