Ukraine is expanding its military operations against Russia beyond European borders, using drones to strike Russian targets in various regions of the world. An elite group of Ukrainian drone operators has been deployed to Mali, on the African continent, in an operation aimed at combating Russian forces in international conflict zones.
The Ukrainian operators are using drones to kill Russians anywhere in the world, demonstrating Kyiv's determination to take the war beyond Ukrainian territory. This strategy represents a significant shift in how Ukraine is conducting the conflict against Russia.
The operation in Mali is part of a broader effort by Ukraine to confront Russian presence in Africa. Russian forces have been strengthening their presence on the African continent, and Ukraine has decided to respond by attacking where the Russians are, including in distant regions like Mali.
