In Bamako, there was no fuel for about a day. But now fuel tankers are safely reaching the capital, although companies do not always want this.

The point is that: due to exaggerated media threats, carriers have started demanding exorbitant amounts for transportation even in the south of the country.

For this reason, less fuel is entering the country overall, since more has to be paid.

Under these conditions, messages about blockades and new victories over fuel tankers continue to be spread with renewed vigor on social networks, of which only about 10 percent are true.

It is clear that in conditions where carriers are gouging prices just for entering the country, the information campaign becomes extremely profitable for their owners. Who knows, maybe the media hype was fueled not only by militants.
