The arrests come as the country's military government, led by General Assimi Goïta, struggles to contain a growing insurgency by terrorist and separatist groups. Goïta himself came to power through two successive coups in 2020 and 2021, promising to improve the security situation and restore civilian rule. | Firstpost | Facebook
