 Malian army withdraws from key Tessalit military camp: sources Mali’s army and its Russian mercenary allies have surrendered Camp Tessalit, a strategic military post in the north, multiple sources told the AFP news agency on Friday. An official from the Tuareg-led separatist group claimed soldiers and mercenaries at the camp had "surrendered", following a fierce fight over the weekend.

UN Warns of War Crimes as Israeli Attacks on Gaza Hospitals Escalate Humanitarian Crisis


The UN Human Rights Office has condemned Israeli attacks on hospitals in Gaza, warning that they have pushed the healthcare system to the verge of collapse. Between October 2023 and June 2024, 136 strikes hit 27 hospitals and medical facilities, causing significant casualties and infrastructure damage. Israel claims these hospitals were used by Hamas, but the UN finds the evidence vague and unsubstantiated. Such attacks may constitute war crimes under international law, which protects medical facilities during conflict.


The report stresses that attacks on hospitals, civilian populations, or disproportionate strikes could violate humanitarian law, and in some cases, deliberate destruction of healthcare facilities might amount to collective punishment. Despite Israel’s assertion that it follows international law, the bombardment of medical centers in Gaza has exacerbated the dire humanitarian crisis and undermined protections for civilians.
