In late April, FLA and JNIM forces captured the city and its strategic base from Russia-backed Africa Corps in a sweeping offensive that saw the militant groups take a large swathe of the loosely populated north as well as some larger towns. The Africa Corps base in Kidal, retaken this week, was evacuated during the initial offensive after a deal was struck to allow encircled mercenaries there to withdraw.

JUST IN: Trump says the administration is in "very deep discussions" regarding the reported plague in Russia and expects to provide an update "probably tomorrow." He also confirmed a call with Putin is scheduled "very soon."

The U.S. has urged Russia to disclose details about the death of a lab worker in Siberia, citing international health obligations. Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasised the need for transparency, noting that Moscow’s information remains limited, reports WSJ “We encourage Russia to be transparent and share more information with the world so that all of us could react accordingly and appropriately,” added Rubio, who was in Iceland to discuss security cooperation in the Arctic. “Maybe there’s nothing there. Maybe it’s bigger than we thought. We don’t know.” The State Department has requested further details and is in talks with other nations. Despite some data shared with the WHO, Russia hasn’t answered key questions, such as the tests conducted. Irkutsk’s governor reported earlier this week no microorganisms linked to the worker’s job. The WHO assesses the risk of pneumonic plague as “very low” outside Russia. Officials say there is no indication the Russian case could trigger an outbreak as contagious as the Covid pandemic.
