Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger announce withdrawal from the ICC

Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger are turning their backs on the International Criminal Court (ICC). The three countries, which are members of the Alliance of Sahel States, accuse the ICC of being an instrument of neo-colonial repression and foreign domination that ignores their rights and realities. Also, people are fleeing war and facing disease as cholera spreads throughout Sudan's 18 states. Half a million people have fled the city of El Fasher with no shelter, prompting the Red Cross to sound the alarm. And it's a big win for Ousmane Dembélé, who has made history by winning the Ballon d’Or. His triumph has sent waves of pride all the way to Senegal.
