Africa Weekly : Volcano eruption in DRC, new military shake-up in Mali

AFP, 28 May 2021
This week in Africa weekly, the eruption of the continent's most active volcano sends tens of thousands fleeing the city of Goma in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo. In Mali, the president and prime minister in charge of the post-coup transition are removed from their posts by the military. More than 150 people are missing and feared drowned after their boat sinks in Nigeria. And France's President Emmanuel Macron visits Rwanda in a historic thawing of relations, recognising his country's responsibility in the 1994 Tutsi genocide. And we head to Sudan's Dinder National Park, where rangers face a daily battle to fend off human encroachment.
