It's kind of tough, these regions are highly unstable and do not even have the communications infrastructure of Gaza. I've cleaned things from think tank articles and human rights organizations, but even there it can be tough to suss out what is biased. Sahel is a train wreck. Colonialism just ended in this past year in some regions as French troops finally left. Prigozhin's paramilitary outfit worked on controlling gold mines and doing that goon work of creating and supporting militias and such, there are links to the RSF. The region is in a long terrible drought, and relied heavily on Ukraine for food. Now, they rely on scraps from here and there. Congo is just straight up brutal, and has been for centuries, maybe even past Leopold IIs unbelievable genocide (Palestine sadly has plenty of precedent, don't believe the hype) there. Now, transnational tech companies rely on the minerals there, mined by slaves held in check by competing warlords and CCP troops and mine owners. 1 reply
