Rwanda signs deal with Canadian startup to build nuclear reactor
A Rwandan flag is seen on the shoulder patch of a soldier in Mocimboa da Praia, northern Mozambique, on August 12, 2021. Apart from a few soldiers on patrol, the streets are deserted and there is not a sound: Mocimboa, a strategic port in the north of Mozambique occupied until recently by armed jihadist groups, is a ghost town, between wild grass and ruined buildings. Some of the houses used by the jihadists -- who have been sowing terror in the north of the country for more than three years and took the town just a year ago -- are preceded by signs in Swahili: "Do not enter" or even "Do not destroy".
