Chad 60th independence anniversary

Today, while Chad was celebrating its independence day, Abdelkerim Yacoub joined a group of demonstrators to protest in front of the Chadian embassy in Paris.

Thousands of protesters are once again on the streets of the Malian capital, Bamako, calling on the country's president, Ibrahim Boubakar Keïta, to step down.
