Overview

• JNIM fighters continue to attack tanker convoys from Senegal and Ivory Coast, enforcing a monthlong blockade that has disrupted regular fuel deliveries to the capital.
• ONAP says its three-day security stock is exhausted, and operators report fuel will arrive only in sporadic, army‑authorized convoys that remain targets for ambushes.
• Long queues formed at the few operating stations in Bamako as electricity supply was cut to as little as six hours a day in places, with some interior cities reporting outages altogether.
• The junta extended convoy escorts and station price controls on Tuesday, while energy officials prioritized serving filling stations and suppliers gave precedence to the capital over regional areas.
• Industry accounts cite more than 100 tankers burned, with drivers killed or abducted; the Ivorian firm CIVOTECH confirmed three deaths on Sept. 21, and some importers now offload at borders for traders to take the remaining risk.
