How al-Qaida-linked jihadist group JNIM is bringing Mali to its knees

Political instability and fuel shortages caused by rebel group is driving Mali to brink of becoming Islamist republic

Armed groups of JNIM fighters have blocked key routes used by fuel tankers, disrupting supply lines to the capital Bamako and other regions across Mali.

The al-Qaida-linked jihadist group Jama’at Nusrat ul-Islam wa al-Muslimin (JNIM) is gradually converging on Mali’s capital, Bamako, with increasing attacks in recent weeks, including on army-backed convoys.

Huge crowds gather on first anniversary of Serbian train station disaster

Student-led movement continues to demand political change as embattled president issues rare apology

Tens of thousands of Serbians have gathered to commemorate victims of a fatal railway station collapse a year ago, a tragedy that galvanised anti-government sentiment that still threatens the embattled president, Aleksandar Vučić.

A student-led movement organised the rallies in the country’s second largest city Novi Sad, where on 1 November 2024, the canopy at the newly renovated railway station collapsed.

Ministers were warned of errors at jail that released sex offender by mistake

Chaotic release procedures at HMP Chelmsford were flagged to the prisons minister last year

Ministers were warned by a watchdog that prisoners were “falling through the cracks” of chaotic release procedures at the jail that mistakenly freed a convicted child sex offender.

An annual report on HMP Chelmsford uncovered “a litany of issues and errors” including “a mix-up of release dates” when letting out a vulnerable prisoner.

Andrew hoped to meet Jeffrey Epstein after his prison release, emails reveal

Publication of 2010 correspondence comes two days after Mountbatten Windsor was stripped of his titles

The former Duke of York told Jeffrey Epstein “it would be good to catch up in person” months after the convicted sex offender was released from prison, newly released emails reveal.

The publication of the correspondence comes two days after Andrew Mountbatten Windsor was stripped of his titles and struck from the official roll of the peerage in an attempt by Buckingham Palace to halt the damage caused by the former duke’s spiralling scandals.

Ex-marine who killed four at Michigan Mormon church was motivated by ‘anti-religious beliefs’, says FBI

Thomas Jacob Sanford, who also lit church on fire, was killed by police who responded to September shooting

The former US marine who opened fire in a Michigan church and set it ablaze in September was motivated by “anti-religious beliefs” against the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the FBI said on Friday.

While friends of the gunman in the deadly shooting have said he harbored hatred for what is widely known as the Mormon church, the FBI had previously declined to specify the motivation behind the attack that left four people dead and the church burned to the ground, except to say it was a “targeted” act of violence.

US public health officials vigilant as newer mpox variant detected

Risk to general public is low but cases in California suggest virus is spreading undetected in some communities

A newer variant of mpox, the virus formerly known as monkeypox, is now spreading through some communities in the US and Europe.

The risk to the general public is low, but community transmission in new places signals greater challenges for public health to detect cases and stop the spread.

‘You’re either poor or rich’: the Argentinians struggling under Milei’s chainsaw austerity

Despite falling inflation, a majority are failing to make ends meet as wages and purchasing power have nosedived

Francisco Jiménez spends at least eight hours a day, seven days a week, riding through the streets of Buenos Aires as a delivery app rider, yet he still struggles to make ends meet.

Next month, the 32-year-old will have to leave his rented house on the outskirts of Argentina’s capital and move with his wife and three children into his mother-in-law’s flat because he can no longer afford the rent.

‘I try to make them feel as ignorant as possible’: German museum’s ‘grumpy guide’ is surprise hit

Performance artist’s aggressive art historian shouts at visitors and insults curators – and his tours are sold out

On a recent autumn evening in Düsseldorf’s Kunstpalast museum, the guide Joseph Langelinck paused next to a Renaissance sculpture of a man with a wooden club and challenged his flock of 18 visitors to name the mythical hero depicted.

“Hercules?” a woman in the front row proposed in a soft voice. “If you know the answer, why can’t you tell us in a way that those at the back can hear you, too?” Langelinck admonished the visitor, before challenging her to name the 12 labours in chronological order. A non-answer elicited an eye roll and a tut. “Oh god, I feel like I’m back at school,” sighed the woman, 62-year-old Corinna Schröder.

Katie Miller is threatening the citizenship of a critic | Arwa Mahdawi

Threatening to deport your critics, even those with US citizenship, seems to have become Maga policy

Some couples bond over shared hobbies; others over shared values. The Maga bigwigs Stephen and Katie Miller, on the other hand, appear to have connected over their shared love of terrorizing immigrant children.

‘We don’t feel safe’: after week of bombings, people in Gaza are losing faith in ceasefire

After initial enthusiasm, people fear ceasefire does not mean end to war but just less frequent, more unpredictable violence

Ameen al-Zein, like many in Gaza, was overjoyed by the news of the ceasefire. It was a rare moment of relief after years of fear and loss. On Tuesday night he gave an interview to a local NGO urging people to return to their homes in northern Gaza now that fighting had stopped. Just half an hour later, Zein was dead, killed in an Israeli bombing on the school where he had been sheltering in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza.

He died without being able to fulfil his vow to his wife that they would return to Beit Lahia and pitch a tent over the rubble, eager to be home even if their house was no longer there.

A South Park Halloween: latest episode destroys Trump over White House demolition

A special haunted episode conjures supernatural forces, including the ghost of Melania, for another attack on the president and his cronies

The second episode of South Park’s abrupt 28th season was meant to air this past Wednesday (the immediately preceding season 27 was just five episodes) but ended up being pushed back to Friday. This worked in the show’s favor, since tonight’s installment, titled The Woman in the Hat, is very much a Halloween special.

After shuttering Tegridy Farms, the Marsh family find themselves rudderless, living out of motels while patriarch Randy looks for work (thanks to the federal government shutdown, he can’t go back to his former job as a government geologist). Out of desperation, Randy moves his family into the old folk’s home where he’s stashed his elderly father.

More than 50 child asylum seekers still missing after disappearing from Kent care

Council data obtained by the Guardian shows 345 children have gone missing in recent years, many probably taken by traffickers

More than 50 lone child asylum seekers who disappeared soon after arriving in the UK and while in the care of the authorities are still missing, according to data obtained by the Guardian.

Many of the missing children arrived in small boats or hidden in the backs of lorries and are thought to have been taken by traffickers. Kent is often the place where they arrive.

West Ham are a shambles – and Nuno shows little sign of being able to fix it | Jacob Steinberg

One point in four games and strange selections mean the Hammers are staring at the Championship unless something changes soon

Nuno Espírito Santo has made a dreadful start at West Ham. He has taken one point from four games in charge and is already in danger of losing mutinous supporters after naming ludicrous starting XIs during his shambolic defeats by Brentford and Leeds.

Do it once and it could have been passed off as an experiment. No such luck here, though. There was bewilderment when Nuno played a right-back on the left, a left-back on the right, the ponderous duo of Tomas Soucek and Andrew Irving in midfield and Lucas Paquetá as a false 9 against Brentford. Nobody was surprised when West Ham, who were fortunate it finished 2-0, produced one of the worst performances by a Premier League team.

Even when unthinkable things were happening to me, my first instinct was to work. Am I addicted?

It was only years later, when I heard the word workaholic being used seriously for the first time, that I wondered whether I had a problem

Have you ever heard a word that jolts you to attention? That word, for me, was “workaholism” – and when I heard it through my headphones earlier this year, listening to an audiobook on the tube, I felt a pang of something between recognition and panic. It transported me back to the worst time in my life.

In May 2016, when I was nearly five months pregnant, I travelled to rural Norway to make a short documentary for the Guardian. The Norwegian government was making asylum seekers – from mostly Muslim countries – take cultural education classes about women’s rights. I’d been invited to a class in Moi, a town by a lake framed with pine trees, 100km south of Stavanger.

Brendon McCullum confident England can throw off batting blues for Ashes

  • Smith, Duckett and Root all fail again in New Zealand loss

  • ‘In Tests we have a pretty decent idea of where we’re at’

Brendon McCullum has predicted England’s batters will have no trouble shaking off the woes that have dogged their white-ball tour of New Zealand in time for the AshesTheir top order crumbled yet again on the way to a third successive defeat in Wellington on Saturday and several key members of the Test squad, including Jamie Smith, Ben Duckett and Joe Root, have struggled badly in recent one-day internationals. But the team’s head coach believes their troubles are limited to the 50-over format.

“It’s a different form of the game and it’s a completely different kind of challenge that we’re going to be confronted with,” he said. “Sometimes the process you go through in regards to batting doesn’t necessarily translate to runs, but the game can come in time. That’s what we’re holding on to, anyway.

Spain expresses regret over ‘injustice’ suffered by Mexico’s Indigenous people during conquest

Acknowledgment shows shift in tone after six years of diplomatic spats over colonial-era abuses

Spain has acknowledged and expressed regret over the “pain and injustice” suffered by the Indigenous people of Mexico during its conquest of the Americas, heralding a shift in tone after six years of diplomatic spats over the abuses of the colonial period.

In March 2019, Mexico’s then president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador wrote to King Felipe VI and Pope Francis, who was then the leader of the world’s Roman Catholics, urging them to apologise for the “massacres and oppression” of colonialism and the conquest.

What the New York mayor’s race will reveal about the Democratic party

The political differences between the two main candidates could have major implications for next year’s midterms

New Yorkers will find out the identity of their next mayor on Tuesday, in a race that will decide who will run, and defend, the US’s largest city at a time when Donald Trump has threatened to send military troops there.

Against that backdrop, New York has seen a mayoral election that has pitted two very different Democrats against one another. The race has become an increasingly bitter face-off, laced with alleged racism and Islamophobia, but it is the political differences between the two main candidates that could have major implications for how the Democratic party performs in next year’s midterm elections.

‘The rainbow of colours reminded me of my childhood’: Guillaume Lavrut’s best phone picture

On holiday in his home town of Aurillac, the photographer was drawn to a pretty puddle of reflected umbrellas

Guillaume Lavrut was visiting the small French town of Aurillac with his wife and three children when he took this photo. The family were looking for souvenirs together and exploring the streets when they happened on a canopy of umbrellas. Aurillac is home to one of the world’s oldest umbrella factories and is regarded by many as the umbrella capital of Europe. For Lavrut, however, a visit to Aurillac is about returning home.

“My family are from there, so we go every summer. It’s so difficult to reach that we need at least a day to get there, but it’s worth it,” Lavrut says. Its peaceful, relaxed atmosphere offers something different from their homes in Paris and Nantes. “The capital is constantly bustling, and Nantes can be busy at times, too, but Aurillac is lost in the mountains, and nature is omnipresent.”

Trump’s military pressure on Maduro evokes Latin America’s coup-ridden past

US forces and CIA actions target Venezuela’s leader, recalling coups and assassinations across the region

The ghosts of sometimes deadly Latin American coups of the past are being evoked by Donald Trump’s relentless military buildup targeting Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela’s autocratic socialist leader, whom Washington has branded a narco-terrorist.

Salvador Allende, the democratically elected Marxist president of Chile toppled in a military coup in 1973, and Rafael Trujillo, the longstanding dictator of the Dominican Republic who was assassinated in 1961 in an ambush organized by political opponents, are just two regional leaders whose fates serve as a warning to Maduro.

Who decides how we adapt to climate change? | Leah Aronowsky

The question is not whether we will reshape our institutions to manage climate impacts, but how

For decades, “stopping climate change” has been the singular goal of climate politics. Across the political spectrum, from grassroots climate campaigners to elite UN negotiators, reducing carbon emissions to avoid future catastrophe has been the organizing logic of climate policies.

Yet climate change has arrived and its material impacts are already being felt. This means that climate politics can no longer focus only on preventing future catastrophes. It must now also encompass struggles over how society manages climate impacts already reshaping economic and social life. Insurance markets, housing, water and land use policies, national labor markets, and local economies – all will need to be radically remade as we adapt to a changed and increasingly volatile climate.

Leah Aronowsky is a historian of science and assistant professor at the Columbia Climate School
