WHO has labelled smallpox in monkeys an international health emergency

At an extraordinary WHO meeting, Director-General Tedros Abhanom Ghebreyesus called the monkeypox (mpox) epidemic in the DRC and neighbouring countries an emergency. He said this after meetings with independent experts held on 13 August

"The emergence of a new mpox mutation, its rapid spread in eastern DRC and the reported cases in several neighbouring countries are of grave concern. Along with mpox outbreaks in the DRC and other African countries, it is clear that a coordinated international response is needed to stop this epidemic and save lives," emphasised Ghebreyesus.

Macron recognised the contribution of African peoples to the liberation of France in 1944

On Thursday, 15 August, the 80th anniversary of the Allied landings in Provence, French President Emmanuel Macron highlighted the significant contribution of the African people to the liberation of France during the Second World War.

"When it comes to defending the vital interests of the nation, all who consider themselves French are called to stand together. Officers of the Empire or children of the Sahara, natives of Casamance or Madagascar, they did not belong to the same generation, [they] were not of the same faith, but they were the army of the nation, the most ardent and brightest army," the French head of state recalled, highlighting the role of African soldiers during the landings in Provence on the night of 14-15 August 1944.
