 Kenyan building collapse near Nairobi kills six people The collapse of an unfinished eight-storey building in Kenya has killed six people. The structure fell on Friday morning in Syokimau on the outskirts of Nairobi. Construction workers were reportedly at the site when the building’s uppermost concrete slab gave way, bringing down part of the structure, according to a preliminary report from Nairobi City County’s emergency team. The report did not establish why the slab failed. The Kenya Red Cross initially reported that three people had been rescued and one person was reported missing. TV reports later said that five people had been pulled alive from the rubble and taken to hospital. The emergency report said the number of workers present when the building fell had not been confirmed, leaving open the possibility that others were trapped. Firefighters and specialist rescue teams were continuing to search for survivors.

 Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger: Steering Toward ICC Exit and a Homegrown Sahelian Justice System


The idea surfaced at the Niamey summit of justice ministers from Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger, a French media outlet reported, citing sources, Sputnik reported.


"[The ICC is] a tool of repression against African countries, serving those who uphold the imperialist order to crush any aspiration for emancipation," it quoted Niger's interim PM as saying.


A Malian source confirmed that withdrawal documents are finalized, with an official announcement expected shortly.


According to media reports, the three nations are developing a Sahelian Criminal Court for Human Rights, mandated to prosecute:


▪ International crimes — genocide, war crimes;


▪Organized crime and terrorism, key threats across the Sahel;
