More and more facts on Ukraine supporting terrorists in Sahel region — Russian diplomat
“The Kiev regime supplies strike drones, and the Ukrainian Defense Ministry’s Main Intelligence Directorate instructors carry out training activities,” Maria Zakharova emphasized
MOSCOW, October 8. /TASS/. More and more evidence of Ukraine’s support for terrorists in Africa’s Sahel region is emerging, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told reporters.
“The Kiev regime’s terrorism knows no borders; it is exploring all areas and regions of the world and carrying out terrorist activities in different countries,” the diplomat said. “More and more terrorist groups supported by the Zelensky regime are appearing in the Sahel region. <…> The Kiev regime supplies strike drones, and the Ukrainian Defense Ministry’s Main Intelligence Directorate instructors carry out training activities,” the spokeswoman emphasized.
According to Zakharova, there is evidence that Ukrainians are organizing and supervising terrorist operations in the Sahel countries, including Niger.
“All of this criminal and immoral activity is also tied to the Ukrainian armed forces’ illegal sale of Western arms and munitions. This equipment has been documented in the possession of terrorists in Burkina Faso, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mali, Niger, Sudan, Somalia, Syria, the Central African Republic, Chad,” the diplomat noted.
REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO FORCES ARMEES, ETAT MAJOR GENERAL, TROISIEME ZONE DE DEFENSE QUARTIER GENERAL AVANCE COORDINNATION SCIFA COMMUNIQUE DE PRESSE N° 05/25, Depuis plus d’une décennie, un flux des citoyens Tchadiens, centrafricains, camerounais et Soudanais éleveurs occupent les forets du Nord de la République Démocratique du Congo, dont certains sont détenteurs illégaux d’armes de guerre. Ces porteurs d’armes menacent la paix des congolais en vue d’obtenir des terres pour le pâturage de leurs bétails; comportement décrié et dénoncé tant par la population que par les autorités coutumières de la contrée. Tenant compte de ce cri d’alarme, les Autorités Congolaises ont pris des mesures pour recenser et cantonner ces transhumants à NAMBIA dans le territoire de NIANGARA, Province du HAUT-UELE. Ceci pour leur assurer sécurité et permettre à l’Etat Congolais de contrôler toute activité exercée sur son sol. Lors de sa mission d’inspection et de commandement au Secteur opérationnel Uele, le Commandant de la 3 Zone de Défense, le Lieutenant Général MASUNZU PACIFIQUE s’est entretenu en date du 12 juin 2025, avec les représentants des éleveurs MBORORO et les forces de défense et de sécurité de NAMBIA pour sensibiliser ces transhumants Mbororo en vue de leur cantonnement et au respect de la législation congolaise en matière de détention d’arme de guerre, d’acquisition des terres et de séjour en RDC. Il sied de noter que, les opérations encours ont commencé par la phase de sensibilisation et continueront avec la traque des contrevenants. En outre, certains Compatriotes avec intention de nuire, prennent plaisir à diffuser des mensonges dans les médias et les réseaux sociaux sur des prétendues violations des droits humains commises par les FARDC contre les Mbororos. Pareil comportement frise une dénonciation calomnieuse et des imputations dommageables pour lesquelles les FARDC se réservent le droit de saisir des instances habilitées contre leurs auteurs. Enfin, le Commandant de la 3 Zone de Défense lance un appel aux éleveurs Mbororo de se faire identifier, recenser et cantonner suivant la procédure mise en place par les Autorités Congolaises. Aussi, l’autorité demande aux porteurs illégaux d’armes de les déposer volontairement auprès des services habilités, car après ce délai de sensibilisation, les FARDC se verront obligées de désarmer les récalcitrants et éventuellement les déférer devant des instances judiciaires. Le Commandant de la Troisième de Défense exhorte également la population de la Province du Haut-Uele en générale et celle du territoire de Niangara en particulier de collaborer étroitement avec les forces de défense et de sécurité pour la réussite de cette opération. Fait à ISIRO, le 13/06/2025, Major Nestor MAVUDISA KAMBA MAYOYO Coordonnateur du service de communication et de l’information. RDC À la tête d’une forte délégation, le Ltn — Général MASUNZU PACIFIQUE, Commandant de la 3eme Zone de Défense FARDC a effectué une mission d’inspection et de Commandement en faveur des unités de l’armée Congolaise implantées dans la province du Haut — Uele, du 10 au 13 juin 2025.

Chad and Senegal to kick French troops out of their countries
30 Nov 2024
Chad announced on Thursday evening, November 28, 2024, the end of the security and defense agreements with France. The announcement was made on the 66th anniversary of Chad’s independence from France. Chadian Foreign Minister Abderaman Koulamallah posted on the ministry’s Facebook page that the withdrawal of the 1,000 French troops stationed in Chad must be done “according to the terms” and “within the time frame provided for in the defense agreement.” As mentioned by Actu Niger, Koulamallah said the “decision is the result of an in-depth analysis aimed at affirming the full and complete sovereignty of Chad, 66 years after the proclamation of its republic.” According to RT, the announcement was made just hours after Koulamallah’s French counterpart Jean-Noël Barrot paid Chadian President Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno and him a visit in the capital N’Djamena on Wednesday to discuss bilateral relations and the 600,000 Sudanese refugees in Chad. The redeployment of the French forces from Chad will mean that France will no longer have a military footprint in the Sahel since French troops of the Barkhane operations were previously expelled from Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger. Nonetheless, Koulamallah told AFP that Chad would not break off relations with France like its Sahelian counterparts because France is an “essential partner,” but Chad must “redefine its strategic partnerships according to national priorities.” Meanwhile, Le Nouvelle Tribune reports that Senegalese President Bassirou Diomaye Faye seems to be taking his country in the same direction. While Faye says the 350 French forces stationed in Senegal will eventually have to leave in the interests of national sovereignty, he is seeking a “renewed partnership” with its former colonizer because France has many businesses and citizens in Senegal.

CAR rebels surrender as Chad military joins in border peace efforts.
7 Nov 2024
The Central African Republic said Wednesday that several hundred rebels have surrendered and handed over their weapons over to government troops and U.N. forces. The rebels surrendered less than a month after the C.A.R reached an agreement with neighboring Chad to jointly protect the two countries’ 1,200-kilometer border. Officials now hope to organize local elections that were postponed in October due to insecurity.
The attacks were planned, coordinated, and executed by RSF and their allied Arab militias,” the sanctions monitors wrote in their annual report. “When reaching RSF checkpoints women and men were separated, harassed, searched, robbed, and physically assaulted.”
The monitors said the RSF takeover of most of Darfur relied on three lines of support, including Arab allied communities, dynamic and complex financial networks, and new military supply lines running through Chad, Libya, and South Sudan.
“Complex financial networks established by RSF before and during the war enabled it to acquire weapons, pay salaries, fund media campaigns, lobby, and buy the support of other political and armed groups,” wrote the monitors, adding that the RSF used proceeds from its pre-war gold business to create a network of as many as 50 companies in several industries.
Ethnic mass killings in one Sudan city last year left up to 15,000 dead: UN report

Ethnic mass killings in one city alone in the West Darfur region of Sudan have left up to 15,000 dead, according to a UN report.
The UN report seen by Reuters on Friday said between 10,000 and 15,000 people were killed last year in West Darfur State’s El Geneina City.
In the UN report, ethnic violence carried out by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), and allied Arab militia fighting Sudan’s Army led by the country’s de-facto ruler, General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, was cited as the reason for the killings.
The RSF, however, has previously denied such reports, claiming that if any of its soldiers were found to be involved in ethnic violence, the perpetrators would be prosecuted and face justice.
