Mali closes schools due to fuel shortage

Malian authorities announced on Sunday the suspension of classes in schools and universities for two weeks nationwide due to a fuel shortage. Since September, jihadists from JNIM have imposed a blockade on roads, preventing the import of fuel from neighboring countries. The group, affiliated with Al-Qaeda, has been attacking fuel trucks coming from Senegal and Ivory Coast—key transit countries for most of the nation’s imports.
