 Mali’s Tuareg rebels say Russian fighters must withdraw from country Mali’s Tuareg rebels, involved in a continuing uprising, including the assassination of the country’s defence minister, have said they want to drive the military government’s Russian backers out of the country, Al Jazeera reported. Mohamed Elmaouloud Ramadane, a spokesperson for the Azawad Liberation Front (FLA), told the AFP news agency during a visit to Paris to meet French security and defence officials that his movement’s “objective” was for Russia’s Africa Corps to “withdraw permanently” from the country.

Both Iran and the U.S., which declared victory following Tuesday’s ceasefire announcement, appeared to leverage pressure: semiofficial Iranian agencies suggested the Strait of Hormuz had been mined, while President Donald Trump warned of intensified U.S. strikes if Tehran failed to honor the deal.

Disputes also emerged over whether the ceasefire covered hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah. Wednesday’s Israeli airstrikes on central Beirut marked the deadliest day in Lebanon since the conflict began on February 28, killing at least 203 people and wounding more than 1,000. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed continued strikes against Hezbollah, while Iran’s parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf warned of “explicit costs and strong responses.” Meanwhile, uncertainty persisted over Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz for international shipping, and Tehran’s capability to launch future missile attacks or support regional proxies. Oil prices remained high, with the Strait’s de facto closure disrupting global trade, and U.S. forces remained on alert until full compliance with the ceasefire is confirmed.
