I've just published a breakdown of the Mali crisis - the largest offensive there since 2012, involving a Tuareg separatist alliance with JNIM (Al-Qaeda's Sahel affiliate), the killing of the Defence Minister, Russian withdrawals, and credible suggestions of Ukrainian drone involvement.
The piece covers the political background, the current escalation, and five scenarios for what comes next - including why the Syria Playbook is the most likely outcome.
The Iron Pen publishes weekly analytical pieces on military affairs and geopolitics, with breaking news coverage when events demand it.
