Amnesty international demands restoration of freedom of movement in Mali

Human rights advocates are urging insurgent groups in Mali to prioritize the safety and mobility of the population. For the past fortnight, the capital city, Bamako, has been subjected to a rigorous road blockade orchestrated by the JNIM. This siege, which began at the end of April, has severed critical supply lines for the landlocked nation, leaving the capital vulnerable as it relies heavily on road-based imports.
