🇲🇱 Malians are mourning the victims of the terror attacks that were carried out across the country over the weekend. Mali's Defense Minister Sadio Camara was killed in the attacks carried out by separatist armed groups and Al-Qaeda-affiliates.

The Confederation of Sahel States (AES) condemned the assaults as “long-planned and coordinated actions aimed at inflicting heavy loss".

Barely four days after repelling the coordinated terror attacks by an Al-Qaeda affiliate and a northern separatist group on six different cities, the government of Mali, whose collapse the Western media has long been prophesying, is pressing on with developmental projects.

The US Department of Justice announced on Wednesday, April 29, that it is charging the Mexican governor of Sinaloa, Rubén Rocha Moya; the mayor of Culiacán, Juan de Dios Gámez; and eight other individuals with participating in activities linked to drug trafficking.

The leftist governor of Sinaloa, professor and lawyer Rubén Rocha, elected in 2021 by the ruling party, MORENA, categorically rejected the accusations, which he considered “slander without truth or basis”.

“This attack is not only against me personally, but against the Fourth Transformation movement [initiated by former President López Obrador and continued by the current president, Claudia Sheinbaum], its iconic leaders, and the Mexicans who represent that cause,” the governor stated on X.

“Today’s ruling reflects a broader pattern in which israeli occupation courts function to legitimize unlawful detention and state violence in cases involving Palestinians and their allies,” the Global Sumud Flotilla reacted to the decision.

In a hearing on Sunday, May 3, an Israeli court extended the imprisonment of Global Sumud Flotilla activists Saif Abukeshek and Thiago Ávila until Tuesday, following the illegal interception of vessels in international waters and the seizure of over 170 activists by occupation forces.

Both activists are on hunger strike and held in Shikma Prison, according to communications by the Global Sumud Flotilla and Adalah Center, whose legal experts are representing Abukeshek and Ávila. “The prison is known for being used to detain Palestinian prisoners under harsh conditions, most recently being used to imprison civilians abducted from Gaza as part of israel’s genocidal campaign against the Palestinian people,” the Global Sumud Flotilla warned.
