Malian authorities opened investigations into at least five soldiers and, according to Deutsche Welle, an exiled politician for possible involvement in recent jihadist attacks that hit several military bases. Al Jazeera identified five army personnel, including three active‑duty soldiers, as suspects. France 24 added that the first arrests have been made and noted that separatist fighters claim to have seized a strategic camp, a detail not mentioned by the other two sources.
