Hundreds of Tunisian demonstrators gathered in the city of Jebeniana on Sunday as part of wider protests against the national government’s perceived failure to control illegal migration. Numerous small villages, such as Jebeniana, which straddles Tunisia’s 1,300 km (807.78 mi) coastline, have erupted in anti-migrant frustration amid surging local resentment towards the continued presence of migrants fleeing sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia. Sunday was the second day this month that anti-migrant protests occurred in Jebeniana and El Amra, another affected city.

The International Organization for Migration Tunisia branch says some 7,000 migrants live in or near Jebeniana and El Amra.

Sometimes clandestinely, sometimes openly, Russia has been building an African proxy empire for years. Blood MoneyThe Central African Republic, like many African states, is impoverished and has been in near-constant unrest for years. Initially only 175 Wagner soldiers arrived. The 2023 Wagner coup demonstrated that Putin’s control over these troops isn’t ironclad. In this sense, even all the way in Africa, Russia is literally helping fulfill Bible prophecy.

Increasingly, many Tunisians are trying to flee economic hardship at home. Migrants from Sub-Saharian Africa gather around a fire at a camp in Jebiniana in Tunisia's Sfax governorate. According to the National Guard, 21,545 people were intercepted between January 1 and April 30, compared with 17,576 over the same period last year. Last year, Tunisians accounted for the second largest number of irregular migrant arrivals in Italy, at 17,304 people, second only to Guineans at 18,204, Italian government figures show. Tunisians marched through the streets of Jebeniana on Saturday to protest the presence of sub-Saharan migrants who have found themselves stranded as the country ramps up border patrol efforts.

Senegal’s new Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko has criticized the French military presence in the West African country and also slammed efforts by the West to promote values that he sees as not fitting with those held by Senegal and other African countries, including LGBTQ rights and monogamy. “I want to reiterate Senegal’s desire for self-determination, which is incompatible with the long-term presence of foreign military bases in Senegal,” Sonko added. Apart from raising the possibility of closing French military bases on Senegal’s territory, the prime minister also reiterated his election campaign promise to renegotiate oil and gas contracts in the West African country, where production is due to begin this year. In his wide-ranging speech, Sonko also touched on the euro-backed CFA franc currency and LGBTQ+ rights and monogamy. Talking about homosexuality, while admitting that this “phenomenon” existed in Senegal, the prime minister called on Western nations to show “restraint, respect, reciprocity and tolerance” on social matters including LGBTQ rights and gender equality.

Flash floods from heavy seasonal rains in Ghor province in western Afghanistan killed dozens of people and dozens remain missing, a Taliban official said on Saturday, adding the death toll was based on preliminary reports and might rise. (AP Photo/Omid Haqjoo)ISLAMABAD — More heavy rains in Afghanistan have triggered flash floods, raising the death toll to 84 in the country’s north following weeks of devastating torrents that had already left hundreds dead and missing, a Taliban spokesman said Sunday. The new round of heavy rains and floods hit four districts in Faryab province Saturday night, leaving 66 dead, five injured and eight missing. Last week, the World Food Program said the exceptionally heavy rains in Afghanistan had killed more than 300 people and destroyed thousands of houses, mostly in the northern province of Baghlan.

BUDAPEST, May 19 (Reuters) – Two people were killed and five others were missing after a suspected collision involving a small motor boat and a cruise ship on the Danube River north of Budapest late on Saturday, Hungarian police said. The body of an adult man was found near the site, while that of a woman was recovered further downstream and disaster response units were still searching for the five missing people, police said on Sunday.

Israel has conducted renewed military sweeps this month of parts of northern Gaza where it had declared the end of major operations in January. One site has been Jabalia, the largest of Gaza Strip’s eight historic refugee camps. “We know of dozens of people, martyrs and wounded, but no ambulance vehicle can get into the area,” he told Reuters. The Israeli military said forces have continued to operate in areas across the Gaza Strip, including Jabalia and Rafah, and struck over 70 targets. In the coming days, around 500 tonnes of aid are expected to be delivered to Gaza through the pier, according to US Central Command.

AdvertisementAnother all-North African CAF Champions League final will see Al Ahly take on Esperance in a double-legged tie with the first leg slated for Saturday May 18 and May 25, 2024 marked for the return leg. Ahly have now made a sixth successive final in the CAF Champions League, although they have been far from their best this season in the Egyptian top flight. Winning three CAF Champions League titles within the decade of the 2010s (2011,2018 and 2019) means Esperance are a major threat to Al Ahly, although the Egyptian giants have 25 continental titles. This year’s CAF Champions League final will mark the fourth all-North African showdown in five years, highlighting the region’s dominance in African football over the past decade and beyond. Securing their 12th CAF Champions League title would also see them represent Africa at the revamped Club World Cup next year, alongside Esperance, Sundowns, and Wydad.

Logano will start up front for the NASCAR All-Star race after turning a lap of 1:29.75 on Saturday during qualifying at North Wilkesboro Speedway. NASCAR is determining how the remainder of the field for the All-Star race will be set, so Kyle Larson's starting position remains unclear. Earlier in the day, Logano was all smiles after winning his first All-Star race pole. Bell's pit crew earned $100,000 for winning the pit crew challenge. Twenty drivers will participate in the All-Star race, 17 of which have already earned their way in through past accomplishments.

The new roadmap would strengthen, better support and enrich the exceptional cooperation between Morocco and the Bretton Woods institution, the two sides underlined. During the meeting, the World Bank president praised the leadership of King Mohammed VI in economic reforms and social construction, noting that the Kingdom is a model of resilience and crisis management, thanks to targeted and effective government actions. He pointed out that the World Bank’s new priorities for South countries will be focused in particular on five key job-creating sectors: electrification, infrastructure, health, agribusiness, and tourism. The WB Chief added that the partnership with Morocco will soon be further strengthened in several priority areas to promote job creation in the private sector, strengthen human capital, and support the fight against climate change. The WB chief also congratulated Morocco for the excellent arrangements put in place to ensure the success of the Annual Meetings of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, held in Marrakech in October 2023.

These factors do not only boost their performances in competition but also influence their strategic decisions at the Confederation of African Football (CAF) level. This approach contrasts with the dominant model of African clubs and academies, which depend on the export of players, which affects their performance in African football league tournaments. On the African stage, Esperance has won the CAF Champions League four times, affirming its status as a leading club in African football. The CAF Champions League final between the two North African clubs, Al Ahly and Esperance Tunis, will be another occasion to celebrate African football. For north African clubs, it is another occasion to showcase their dominance over the African football leagues.
