Mali: Security situation deteriorates, human rights concerns rise #IndiaNEWS #International
UN troop rotations in the peacekeeping mission in Mali (MINUSMA) resumed on Monday with a new approval mechanism one month after the ruling junta suspended troop rotations and accused 49 Ivorian soldiers of entering the country without permission on 10 July.

The soldiers, who were described by the Government of Mali as “mercenaries,??? were part of logistical support operations for the nearly 12,000-strong mission, according to Abidjan.
Malian justice authorities officially confirmed that the soldiers had been imprisoned, charged with “attempting an attack on State security???.
The arrests highlighted the exiting friction between the junta, which seized power through a coup in August 2020, and the UN, whose peacekeepers have been providing security from Islamist militants in the country since 2013.
Streamlined rotation
The UN mission and Malian authorities have agreed to a streamlined rotation procedure, according to a MINUSMA spokesperson, Myriam Dessables.
“It is planned that the rotations will start again this Monday???, Ms. Dessables confirmed.
