Mawlid cancelled in Tigray

GlobeAlert Desk · curated from France 24 [en]

Also, Muslims celebrate Mawlid across Africa but festivities were cancelled in Tigray because of recent drone attacks. And finally in the Kenyan village of Cheporor, a recent discovery of gold sent thousands of amateur prospectors rushing to the area.
