Face à ces groupes djihadistes, par manque de moyens, l'armée et le gouvernement malien ont armé et financé des milices : les «dozo», qui ne sont pas un groupe ethnique mais une confrérie plus ou moins ésotérique de chasseurs traditionnels, principalement dogon ou bamanan, dont le rôle est d'assurer la sécurité des villages. Et devenus hors contrôle. Je suis allé à leur rencontre. Ils se déploient au bord de la route qui traverse le plateau, armés de kalachnikov, pour contrôler les véhicules. Leurs escadrons à motos sillonnent les axes principaux, sèment la terreur dans les villages. Sur les soixante kilomètres de la route qui relie Sévaré, près de Mopti, à Bandiagara à l'est, les grands troupeaux de zébus, les chapeaux coniques et les turbans du peuple peul ont disparu.
Le 23 mars 2019, des hommes en tenue de chasseurs dozo ont attaqué le village peul d'Ogossagou, dans le centre du pays. Ils ont incendié les cases, assassiné quelque 160 habitants et jeté leurs cadavres dans les puits. Deux mois plus tard, en représailles, Sobane-Kou, village dogon près de Mopti, a été ravagé. Bilan : 35 morts. Des massacres filmés au téléphone portable et diffusés sur les réseaux sociaux par les deux camps pour attiser la haine et la soif de vengeance. En novembre, un jeune peul m'a montré une de ces vidéos insoutenables. Avant d'ajouter, avec une froide détermination : «Tant qu'il restera un Dogon vivant, nous nous vengerons.»
