Desde octubre de 2025 hasta marzo de 2026, más de 13.000 malienses han huido a la región de Hodh Ech Chargi, en Mauritania, debido al recrudecimiento de los enfrentamientos en Malí. Los civiles escapan de la violencia entre el ejército maliense, apoyado por mercenarios rusos de Africa Corps, y grupos yihadistas como JNIM. Los refugiados relatan ataques indiscriminados por parte de ambos bandos, incluyendo ejecuciones y bloqueos de ciudades. Los mercenarios rusos, que reemplazaron al Grupo Wagner, son acusados de atacar a civiles, mientras que los yihadistas imponen estrictas normas religiosas en las áreas que controlan. La población refugiada en Mauritania, compuesta mayoritariamente por malienses, ha aumentado significativamente desde 2023.
