Mali's Military Junta Terminates 2015 Peace Deal with Separatist Rebels
TL;DR
Mali's military rulers have terminated the 2015 peace deal with Tuareg separatist rebels, citing the deal's impossibility and blaming a change in posture of certain signatory groups as well as acts of hostility from Algeria, the main mediator. Tensions between Mali and Algeria have been increasing, and the departure of UN and French troops has led to an upsurge in violence as both the government and separatist groups vie to fill the resulting vacuum.
