The iconic Saharan rock band’s sixth album, Assikel, is by turns intimate, raw and deeply atmospheric. Recorded on analogue tape, with the band playing live and direct, the album fully captures their instinctive interplay and hypnotic presence.

Speaking with FRANCE 24's Mark Owen, Michael Shurkin, Director of Global Programmes at 14 North Strategies, says that Mali faces a very high risk of a new coup d'état, adding that the jihadist group JNIM and the Tuareg rebels of the FLA "clearly have the initiative and the Malian government is on the backfoot".

Two days of national mourning have been declared in Mali after the country's defence minister was killed in an attack by Al-Qaeda linked group JNIM, who have allied with Tuareg rebels. Despite their disagreements, the two sides joined forces to fight against the Malian army, which is supported by Russian mercenaries.

Africa Corps, a paramilitary group controlled by Russia's Defence Ministry, confirmed on Monday that its forces had withdrawn from the northern town of Kidal in Mali after fierce fighting there. Africa Corps has been supporting the Malian junta since deploying to Mali in 2025. But Russia's presence in the country stretches back to 2021.

A bit of a trip down local history (and some woods) last weekend.
I visited the Monument to the People of Moslavina's Revolution, one of several monuments raised during the post-WW2 era in Yugoslavia. This one is in a little place called Podgarić and is the work of Dušan Džamonja.Followed that up with a bit of forest trail riding.
