 AU urges de-escalation as fighting displaces over 180,000 in South Sudan’s Jonglei state The Chairperson of the African Union Commission called for immediate de-escalation and strict adherence to South Sudan’s 2018 peace agreement, as renewed fighting in Jonglei State displaced more than 180,000 people and raised fears of further civilian harm. In a statement, African Union Commission Chairperson Mahmoud Ali Youssouf said he was deeply concerned by the deteriorating security situation in parts of the country, particularly Jonglei, where escalating violence and inflammatory rhetoric have put civilians—including women and children—at heightened risk.

AFTER NEARLY A DECADE ON THE RUN, ALEJANDRO ROSALES CASTILLO, ONE OF THE FBI'S TEN MOST WANTED FUGITIVES, WAS CAPTURED IN MEXICO ON JANUARY 16, 2026. (PHOTO).


 After nearly a decade on the run, Alejandro Rosales Castillo, one of the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, was captured in Mexico on January 16, 2026. 

The FBI's Law Enforcement Attache Office in Mexico City coordinated with Mexican authorities to apprehend Castillo in Pachuca, Hidalgo, and he is now detained in Mexico City pending extradition proceedings to North Carolina.


Castillo was wanted in connection with a 2016 case involving the death of 23-year-old Truc Quan "Sandy" Ly Le in Charlotte, North Carolina. The two had worked together at a restaurant, and authorities say the incident occurred after a dispute over money. Castillo was added to the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list in October 2017, and the FBI offered a reward of up to $250,000 for information leading to his capture.


FBI Director Kash Patel noted that Castillo is the fifth fugitive from the Ten Most Wanted list to be apprehended since the beginning of 2025, marking significant progress in these cases. FBI Charlotte Special Agent in Charge James C. Barnacle Jr. expressed hope that the arrest will bring some measure of peace to Le's family, who have waited years for justice in this case.
