       Mali's ruling junta suspends all UN peacekeeping rotations •
       FRANCE 24 English
       --- Quote ---
       > In tonight's edition: Mali puts a stop to rotations of UN
       peacekeepers from the organisation's MINUSMA mission. Five
       former members of the Gambia's Intelligence Agency have been
       sentenced to death for the 2016 killing of a political activist
       called Solo Sandeng. And three years after the launch of a
       groundbreaking pilot programme for the world's first malaria
       vaccine, there is frustration from Africa that more shots aren't
       yet available.

       Germany to withdraw all its troops from Mali by 2024 | DW News
       --- Quote ---
       > Germany's government says it has agreed to withdraw all its
       troops from Mali by 2024. The West African nation has been
       fighting a Jihadist insurgency for a decade now.
       >
       > Germany has around 1,000 troops currently deployed in Mali.
       Most are involved in reconnaissance. The pull-out will start in
       mid 2023. More and more Western nations have withdrawn their
       forces from Mali in recent months. Its military government has
       become a close ally of Russia - and Russian mercenaries have
       been linked to several massacres there.

       > Eyewitness footage shows the moment a Russian made Ilyushin
       Il-76 transport aircraft overran the runway and exploded
       following a landing at Gao International Airport (GAQ) in Mali
       on Saturday, September 23, 2023.

       There are unconfirmed reports suggesting that Wagner PMC
       mercenaries were on board.

       end of the runway, before crossing a perimeter road and then
       proceeding down an embankment.

       Jihadists threaten to overrun Mali as blockades continue •
       FRANCE 24 English
       --- Quote ---
       > Since September, blockades have been multiplying across Mali,
       carried out by jihadists from the JNIM, the al Qaeda-linked
       Group for the Support of Islam and Muslims. The jihadists are
       imposing a fuel blockade that has paralysed the landlocked Sahel
       country's economy. The resulting unrest and violence have sent
       refugees fleeing westwards into Mauritania. We speak with
       Oluwole Ojewale, co-ordinator for West and Central Africa at the
       Institute for Security Studies.

       Mali Crisis Deepens: Fuel supply cut, Military under siege,
       foreigners abducted
       --- Quote ---
       > The security situation in Mali is worsening, with jihadist
       groups blocking fuel supplies, attacking military posts, and
       kidnapping foreign nationals. These actions have forced schools
       and businesses to close, disrupted access to essential goods,
       and raised concerns about broader regional instability across
       the Sahel. To help us unpack the situation and its implications,
       we are joined by Héni Nsaibia, Senior West Africa Analyst at
       ACLED - (Armed Conflict Location & Event Data).
