notes: On 14 November 2021, Russian mercenaries from Wagner Group attacked miners and shop owners in the village of Kouki (Nana-Bakassa, Ouham), in retaliation for an ambush carried out by an unidentified armed group from Sudan a few hours earlier 10 km from Kouki (coded separately). Suspecting that the miners were part of this armed group, Wagner mercenaries stormed two mining sites, burned private homes and stores, and killed several people. There were 19 fatalities, all among miners.
