Your "fact" is a rotting cherry left on the tree. In other news, another one of your planes just fell out of the sky.

Russian charter flight suspected to have been carrying Wagner mercenaries crashes in Mali (msn.com)
Story by ???? ???????•16h

The aircraft allegedly crashed near the airport in Gao. Photos and videos from the crash site were posted online.

The causes of the crash, its cargo and passengers, and number of victims are currently unknown.

Al-Arabiya, citing sources, writes that the plane was Russian and was probably used by Wagner mercenary company units. Malian government-affiliated media outlets also denythat the plane could have been Malian.

The Chinese foreign-language TV channel CGTN, citing sources in the Malian army, writes that the plane was carrying military equipment and personnel.

Al-Arabiya also reports, citing Malian media, that the plane was not shot down, but rather crashed due to pilot error.

The Wagner PMC cooperates with the Malian armed forces, helping them fight jihadist insurgents. In 2021, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov confirmed that Mali would hire Russian soldiers to "help ensure security."
