AFRICOM, African militaries unite to combat gender-based violence.
Thursday 26 Sep 2024 {HMC} U.S. Africa Command, or AFRICOM, is working with southern African countries to combat gender-based violence in the military.
This week, AFRICOM and regional military officials are holding a series of workshops in Zambia to strengthen regional collaboration in the fight against workplace harassment.
AFRICOM and its component, the U.S. Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces Africa, or USAFE-AFAFRICA, have united with the Zambia Defense Force to foster strategies to tackle gender-based violence in the region.
Botswana and Zambia are participating in efforts to strengthen regional initiatives against sexual assault.
Lieutenant Colonel Linda Jones, USAFE-AFAFRICA chief for African health engagements, said it is imperative to come up with strategies to fight gender-based violence in the armed forces.
“It is the responsibility of leaders that all of us set the tone, including an environment where everyone is valued and empowered to speak up against misconduct,” she said. “This involves not only enforcing policies but also modeling respect for behavior and actively supporting those who report incidents.”
In 2021, U.S. Defense Department officials reported sexual violence had reached the highest level ever reported, with 8.4% of women assaulted on duty.
U.S. Air Force Tech Sergeant Samara Brown said if left unchecked, gender-based violence can affect execution of military tasks.
“Gender-based violence undermines the core values of any military organization,” Brown said. “It erodes trust, disrupts unity, cohesion and ultimately compromises mission readiness. We must take a firm stand against it, not just as a matter of policy but a commitment to uphold the principles of honor, integrity and respect that define our service.”
Retired U.S. Air Force official and workplace development consultant Keith Castille facilitated the Lusaka workshop. He said such collaborations with the Zambia Defense Force can ensure gender-based violence is addressed within regional militaries.
“No military can tackle this issue alone,” he said. “By sharing knowledge and collaborating across branches and communities, we can develop more effective strategies to combat gender-based violence.
Engaging in open dialogue, facilitating workshops and creating joint initiatives will enable us to learn from one another and strengthen our collective efforts.”
Attending the workshop in Lusaka, Zambian Defense Force Major Stephen Muleya said the military workplace must be free of gender-based harassment.
“When individuals know that they can perform their duties without the threat of harassment or violence, they are more likely to focus fully on their missions,” he said. “We must actively cultivate an atmosphere where everyone can thrive free from fear and intimidation.”
Zambian officials said they’re planning to open a regional office for innovative gender-based violence solutions.
Zambian air force legal adviser Major Glory Musonda said collaboration with U.S. partners should result in solutions to gender-based violence within the force.
“We all have a responsibility to build military environments where respect and dignity are upheld,” Musonda said. “It’s not enough to simply acknowledge the issue, we must actively work toward solutions that ensure the safety and well-being of every service member.”
Meanwhile, officials representing the U.S. Army War College are in Lusaka for discussions on women, peace and security, which aligns with efforts to address gender-based violence in the region.

Sudan army launches major attack on capital Khartoum
Thursday 26 Sep 2024 {HMC} Sudan’s army has launched a major offensive against the powerful paramilitary group it is fighting in the country’s civil war, targeting areas in the capital it lost at the start of the conflict.
In dawn strikes on Thursday, government forces shelled Rapid Support Forces (RSF) bases in the capital Khartoum, and Bahri to its north.
Sudan has been embroiled in a war since the army and the RSF began a vicious struggle for power in April 2023, leading to what the UN has called one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.
Up to 150,000 people have been killed in the conflict while more than 10 million people – about a fifth of the population – have been forced from their homes.
Witnesses reported intense aerial bombardments and heavy fighting on Thursday as army troops crossed two key bridges over the River Nile – which had separated government-controlled areas in Omdurman from the regions controlled by the RSF.
Since early in the war, the paramilitaries have been in control of nearly all of the capital.
Thursday’s advances appear to be the government’s first significant push in months to regain some territory.
The offensive comes just before army chief General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan is set to address the UN General Assembly in New York later on Thursday.
The UN has called for “immediate” action to protect civilians and end the fighting.
Much of the worst and most intense fighting has taken place in heavily populated regions. Both sides have accused each other of indiscriminately bombing civilian areas.
“Relentless hostilities across the country have brought misery to millions of civilians, triggering the world’s fastest-growing displacement crisis,” warned the UN on Wednesday.
It noted that half of the 10 million people who had fled their homes were children, while at least two million have sought protection in neighbouring countries.
It also called Sudan “the world’s largest hunger crisis”. There are fears of widespread famine as people have not been able to grow any crops.
There have also been warnings of a possible genocide against non-Arabs in the western region of Darfur.
A cholera epidemic is also raging throughout the country- more than 430 people have died from the easily-treatable disease in the past month, the health ministry said on Wednesday.
But getting treatment to those affected areas is hugely complicated by the conflict.

Cameroonian separatist leader arrested in Norway
Thursday 26 Sep 2024 {HMC} Norwegian police on Wednesday said they had arrested a man on suspicion of incitement to commit crimes against humanity in Cameroon, where a radio station identified him as “separatist leader” Lucas Cho Ayaba.
The Kripos police unit that deals with war crimes and crimes against humanity said in a statement that it had arrested “a man in his 50s” on Tuesday, but did not name him.
“Norwegian police have arrested the separatist leader Lucas Cho Ayaba. He is implicated in atrocities committed in the northwest and southwest,” said CRTV radio station.
Two sources had earlier told AFP that Ayaba, 52, was the man arrested.
Cameroon has been gripped since 2016 by a bloody conflict in its two anglophone regions, in the northwest and southwest, between separatists and state forces.
The conflict was sparked by the brutal suppression of peaceful protests in the anglophone regions by long-time President Paul Biya.
“Kripos considers that the suspect is playing a central role in the ongoing armed conflict in Cameroon,” the Norwegian police statement said.
The anglophone community, which has long complained of marginalization and discrimination, makes up about 20% of the largely francophone central African country.
Ayaba is the leader of the Ambazonia Defense Forces, one of the main armed groups operating in the anglophone areas.
International NGOs accuse both the armed separatists and government forces of abuses.
More than 6,000 people have been killed and at least a million displaced during the conflict, the International Crisis Group has said.
A lawyer representing victims of the conflict filed a complaint in the United States against Ayaba and the Norwegian state.
In February, the lawyer, Emmanuel Nsahlai, also petitioned the International Criminal Court to launch an investigation.
Ayaba was a former student union activist in the 1990s and holds German nationality.
It was the first time that Norway had arrested someone on suspicion of inciting crimes against humanity.
If convicted, he could face 30 years in prison.
