🇫🇷 FLASH INFO | « Une négresse de maison comme toi » : des étudiantes baby-sitters dénoncent le racisme de familles qui les emploient
« T’es moche comme tous les Arabes », « Mais pourquoi y a que des Noirs là ? On n’est pas en Afrique ici ! », « Ta peau n’est pas blanche, c’est sale » : autant de propos qu’elles disent avoir entendus.
Dans une enquête de StreetPress, plusieurs étudiantes racontent subir insultes et propos racistes ou islamophobes pendant leurs gardes d’enfants.
Kiya, 22 ans, affirme même qu’un parent lui aurait lancé : « Une négresse de maison comme toi, ça sait s’occuper des enfants. »
Certaines dénoncent également la minimisation de ces comportements par les parents lorsqu’elles les signalent.

Saddened by the passing of H.E. #Manuel_Domingos_Augusto, former Foreign Minister of #Angola🇦🇴 . #Africa has lost a seasoned diplomat who made a significant contribution to regional, continental & global diplomacy. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family at this difficult time

All of these are relatively cheap in terms of technology, but they’re technically complex to operate and challenging to roll out, especially given the command and control challenges of dozens of FARDC and aligned units with wildly different capabilities and training.

IMO the benefit to FARDC here is helping with ISR, unit coordination (ie digital tools to keep track of which unit is where), using drones to correct heavy mortars and performing tactical strikes by large quadcopters dropping shells (rather than large UCAVs like CH-4 or TB-2).
Blackwater founder Erik Prince deployed a private security force to operate drones and help Democratic Republic of Congo's army secure the strategic city of Uvira against Rwanda-backed rebels, four people briefed on the mission said. reuters.com/world/africa/tru…

You can see the blood from space. Horrifying images are emerging from El Fasher after the RSF stormed the city.
Executions, reports of mass killings in a hospital and satellite images that appear to show piles of bodies.

Chaque jour, se précise la perspective d’une dissolution suivie de la constitution d’un gouvernement de droite et d’extrême droite. Chaque jour, le « bloc central » sombre dans de mesquines querelles personnelles et recule dans les sondages. Amère sera la chute. Et méritée….

Mogadishu has listed Somaliland alongside al-Shabaab as a national security threat.
That mindset explains why dialogue and progress remain impossible.
Somaliland’s case is political and legal, never a threat to peace.
