The Gold Leak: Inside Cameroon’s Fractured Mining Crackdown

In Kambélé, an artisanal mining hub in Cameroon’s East region, 18-year-old Jérémie Nathan sits on a mound of excavated earth holding a hand-shovel. Until last month, he cleared gravel lines for Zhenguo Sarl, a foreign-owned semi-mechanised mining company operating in the area. Today, the excavators are chained and silent. A central government decree has ordered more than 200 of these companies across the East and Adamawa regions to halt operations immediately, deploying military personnel to seal their heavy machinery.

India's Cockroach Revolution: How a Supreme Court Insult Sparked a Youth-Led Political Movement

Twenty-year-old Saloni Taneja had barely slept. For days, she and hundreds of other students had been eating, sleeping and protesting under the open sky at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi’s designated protest site, as June temperatures hovered near 40°C. Around her, demonstrators clutched roses and books and sang about revolution, equality and justice — non-violent gestures of dissent requested by organisers should police attempt to disperse the gathering. On Sunday, that threat became real: police moved in and detained climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, who had been on hunger strike at the site for 20 days in solidarity with the students, and took him to an undisclosed location. The protesters did not move. In response, CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke announced he would begin an indefinite ...

Unresolved conflict drives acute food insecurity in Africa.

Fighting Malnutrition in Conflict Areas

Malnutrition remains one of the world’s most preventable crises. Globally, it is a contributing factor in 45 per cent of childhood deaths — a toll driven not only by poverty and climate shocks, but by conflict. In Africa, for example, the Africa Center for Strategic Studies estimates that 167 million people faced acute food insecurity in 2025, around 78 per cent of them in countries experiencing active conflict. The pattern is stark: where fighting persists, hunger deepens. Humanitarian organisations working in these environments are developing practical responses. One of them is the Mary Dinah Foundation (MDF), that works to prevent acute malnutrition in conflict-affected communities. The foundation partners with local health facilities and distributes ready-to-use therapeutic and ...

US refugee resettlement remains frozen, but not for white South Africans

After successful interviews with the United States (US) Homeland Security in August 2024, Takang Enoh, a Cameroonian refugee in Nigeria, was approved for resettlement, alongside his wife and daughter, within the next four to five months. (image) Would you like us to summarize articles for you? ARTICLE SUMMARY The article examines how the United States’ refugee resettlement system remains largely frozen for people fleeing wars and persecution worldwide, while making an exception for white Afrikaners from South Africa. It explores the Trump administration’s decision to fast-track their applications, despite disputed claims of widespread racial persecution, and contrasts this with the continued suspension of refugee admissions for groups from countries such as Afghanistan, Sudan and the ...

The civilian cost of Pakistan’s counter-terrorism war in Afghanistan

In late February, Pakistan launched ‘open war’ on Afghanistan with Operation Ghazal lil-Haq (Wrath for the Truth), marking the most violent period of fighting between the two countries since the Taliban takeover in 2021. For Pakistan, it was a war of retaliation against the Tehreek-e-Taliban, or TTP, a militia sympathetic to the Afghan Taliban. Pakistan has long accused Afghanistan of offering safe harbour to the TTP ‘Tashkeel,’ or administrative structures and combat units, and was fed up with inaction.

ARTICLE SUMMARY Pakistan’s counterterrorism operations along the Afghanistan border have increasingly placed civilians in the crossfire, with airstrikes and military actions killing women and children, destroying ...
