notes: On 9 January 2020, Katiba Macina (JNIM) militants clashed with defectors that had joined Islamic State in the Greater Sahara amid disagreements over access to land in Dogo (Youwarou, Mopti). At least two ISGS fighters were killed and eight others taken prisoners. Although JNIM refuted a statement falsely attributed to them about the events, several local sources confirmed that the clashes occurred.
