this is the more the battlefront your lecture last year when his troops food and eventually expelled bokhara in a nice little affiliated group he's death on another battlefront is a huge blow to our allies in the fight against armed groups and there's a hell and elsewhere in africa. there are concerns that with security challenges increasing and whom the country may limit or even reduce its participation in external conflict it was reported 3 years ago that debbie before he died was moving units that he had deployed somali and news year back to chad to help defend the capital these are some of his best units so if the current interim government has to keep those units in chad for security purposes. then that would disrupt at least in the short term france's and the broader g. 5. counterterrorism efforts in. and those ripples remain a threat a father deterioration of security in charge could trigger that would draw all of

its troops from regional hospitals to bolster security at home this will in turn leave many countries in the same hell and lake chad regions more vulnerable to study and troops there play a significant role in stopping armed groups from over and in many communities. chad a country with a history of cool civil war and tribal conflict is battling various rebel groups the latest being the one in which president deby lost his life 'd. the group was until a year ago police did libya and was fighting alongside mercenaries and how do you have to ironically one of the reasons that they're coming back into chad right now is because the peace agreement that was forged under the united nations auspices in libya requiring all foreign armies to leave the country and so they're doing just that they're bringing with them the training and the arms that they inside of libya and they're bringing them to chat. with the region awash with heavy and small weapons from libya conflict experts say child and the entire region could see an

uptick in violence by rebels in armed groups in coming months western power was considered as a dependable ally and one charge and forces to continue to play the torch will do the new military government having so much to deal with right now that are no guarantees but troops will continue to fight those battles while there is trouble. i'm with you greece and you see the picture now italy in the netherlands will start using the johnson and johnson jab after europe strong regulator recommended it should include a warning label the european medicines agency found possible links between the one those covert 19 vaccine and blood clots but it says the side effect is very rare and the benefits of the vaccine outweigh any potential risks johnson and johnson the rollout of the jap last week after recommendations from the u.s. authorities. afghan peace talks set to take place in istanbul this week have
