Le 25 juillet 2021, le président Kaïs Saied s’est emparé de l’Article 80 de la Constitution pour déclarer l’état d’exception.

The Emirati shipment followed the Tunisian president dismissing parliament and the prime minister last month in what critics have called a coup.

Pentru că afacerile din America au fost închise din cauza măsurilor de distanțare socială, iar angajații au început să se bazeze pe ajutoarele federale, președintele Donald Trump a interzis temporar evacuarea americanilor care nu-și mai puteau plăti chiriile. Moratoriul acesta a expirat în septembrie 2020.

C’était la première fois, depuis une décennie et le renversement de son père, qu’il s’exprimait dans la presse internationale : Saïf al-Islam Kadhafi a affirmé au New York Times, en fin de semaine dernière, qu’il envisageait un retour en politique en Libye, tout en restant vague sur son programme et sur une possible candidature à la présidentielle prévue en fin d’année.

Weeks ago, bandits shot down a fighter jet in northern Nigeria. This comes amid questions over the Nigerian Air Force’s readiness to curb insecurity and a slew of deals by the Nigerian government to upgrade its airpower.
On July 18, “bandits” shot down a Nigerian Air Force (NAF) fighter jet in northern Nigeria on the border between Zamfara and Katsina states. The pilot successfully ejected from the aircraft and avoided capture by the “bandits” using his “survival skills” until he reached an army installation. While NAF planes have crashed in the past—including earlier this year when a plane crash killed Chief of Army Staff General Ibrahim Attahiru—this is apparently the first time a jet has been brought down by enemy fire.
The continued recruitment and presence of mercenaries in Libya is impeding “progress in the peace process” and an obstacle to upcoming elections, independent UN human rights experts said on Friday, calling for their “long overdue” departure..

Awoken by gunshots in the middle of the night, Fatima Amadou was shocked by what she saw among the attackers: children.
Guns slung over their small frames, the children chanted “Allahu akbar,” as they surrounded her home in Solhan town in Burkina Faso’s Sahel region. Some were so young they couldn’t even pronounce the words, Arabic for “God is great,” said the 43-year-old mother.
