Mali

Some 200 Malian soldiers arrived in the Tuareg stronghold of Kidal, under a peace deal in which the Tuareg MNLA agreed to remove all roadblocks, refrain from carrying weapons in public, and return to their barracks under the supervision of UN peacekeepers. MNLA supporters protested the soldiers’ arrival in Kidal; a larger detachment is expected soon to bolster the small force.
