Congo rebel leader claims responsibility for drone attack on strategic northeast city

he leader of the AFC/M23 rebel movement in Democratic Republic of Congo on Tuesday claimed responsibility for a drone attack targeting the airport in the strategic northeastern city of Kisangani, describing it as a warning to the government. The government of Tshopo province, where Kisangani is located, said in a statement on Sunday that eight explosive‑laden drones targeted the airport serving Kisangani. It said all the drones were shot down before reaching their target.

Trump signs extension of Africa duty-free trade programme, USTR says

US President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed a law extending a preferential trade programme for Africa through December 31, effective retroactively from September 30, 2025, the chief US trade negotiator said. US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said his office would work with Congress this year to update the programme to provide more market access for US businesses, farmers and ranchers, and to align with Trump's America First trade policy. The African Growth and Opportunity Act, first enacted in 2000 to provide duty-free access to the US market for eligible Sub-Saharan African countries covering more than 1 800 products, expired in September, putting at risk hundreds of thousands of African jobs.

CONTEXT

the Government Pension Fund of Norway is the largest sovereign-wealth fund in the planet; investing over a real, EU trillion in businesses worldwide.

where did they get the money to start the fund? FROM SURPLUS PETROLEUM & FOSSIL FUEL REVENUES. Norway nationalized key sectors of their economy, starting with oil & gas.

so the Norwegian government uses oil & gas money to rid the country of #petromafia #consumerism thru investments not taxes.

take that, neoliberal capitalists.

@blogdiva

Now please can we get #Norway to stop exploring/selling more #oil and #gas ? Make money some other way? Maybe rent out their abundant habitable land to #climate refugees from #Africa?

Oh. Hey. Don't mind me.

While I was having lunch outside, this neighborhood cat fell from the roof of my house, shook itself off, and started climbing back up again.

So lovely to see the bond between this young male and his sister. For the moment they are part of a very competent hunting pride, but shortly he will start throwing his weight around and Dad will kick him out. #naturephotography #africa #lion

A young male lion lies in the grass, as his sister walks past him she rubs her shoulder along his face in a sweet moment of bonding.
