Mali: Tuareg separatists announce the end of a blockade on the northern axes. “All blockades are lifted on the routes from the Algerian border to the cities of Timbuktu and Gao,” declared the Permanent Strategic Framework (CSP), an alliance of armed rebel groups.

Hostilities resumed in August 2023 after eight years of calm between the belligerents, who competed for control of the territory and military camps left by the blue helmets of the UN Mission.
