Mutinous soldiers cut off Ivory Coast's second city
Citat:Mutinous soldiers in Ivory Coast shot three people on Saturday and cut off access to the second largest city, Bouake, as a revolt escalated over demands for bonus payments.

The revolt began in Bouake early on Friday before spreading quickly, following a similar pattern to a mutiny by the same group in January that paralysed parts of Ivory Coast and marred its image as a post-war success story.

Mutineers seized control of the national military headquarters and defence ministry in the centre of the commercial capital Abidjan on Friday.

Exclusive Satellite Images Of China’s ‘Defence Base’ In Djibouti


Citat:The new fortress would be able to monitor all shipping through Red Sea and Gulf of Aden and use it to project its military power in the African region



The Chinese Dream 中国梦 has been taking shape since the turn of the century. Keeping in tune with country’s national objectives, the Chinese Navy called PLA Navy or PLAN has been modernising to make itself true blue water navy. China has been sending its hospital ship ‘Peace Ark’ #866 and training ship ‘Zhenghe’ #81 on world tours for a long time. Since the last decade Chinese PLAN anti-piracy flotillas have been making forays into Gulf of Aden, Red Sea and beyond to Europe. The experiences of these longish missions the PLAN personnel felt the need for replenishment of ships and recoupment of its personnel.
China started consultations with Djibouti in early 2015, which fructified into a long-term deal (50 year lease?) of about 200 acres of land for a so called logistical support base. The work started in March 2017 along with the construction of Doraleh Multi-purpose Port being constructed by China State Construction Engineering Corporation (CSCEC).

Logistic Fortress
The Chinese base is claimed to be a simple logistical support base providing replenishment to anti-piracy escort ships and temporary rest to its personnel. But it actually seems to be a base supporting 联合先遣组值 or Joint Forward Group as per the writings on a picture purported to be of the base, leaked on Chinese internet.
The picture clearly shows PLA army and PLA navy personnel standing in uniform suggesting joint formation at the base.

The satellite imageries of April 01, 2017 and August 23, 2016 clearly show a massive fortress being constructed by China.
Recently, a Chinese defence adviser explicitly called the navy installation a “military base”, a striking departure from Beijing’s past descriptions of the project as a “support facility”.
Professor Jin Yinan, a retired major general and former director of the strategic research institute at the PLA’s National Defence University, told an open forum in Hong Kong this week: “We said in the past that we would never build an overseas base but now we build one. Why?“ Jin said. “Will China copy the US to seek hegemony in the world? No. We have to protect the Chinese maritime interest faraway.”
The base under construction has at least 15-18 storage barracks, a likely office complex and a UAV/heliport. The base also has large area under construction which looks like a huge underground air conditioning (AC) plant. The large ‘B’ shaped five storied building is possibly a residential building. The size of 95m x 33m will provide space enough for more than brigade strength of troops. The office complex will also have much expected hospital and gymnasium. The UAV/heliport area has a 50m x 35m hangar and large apron type hard standing coming up. The other buildings would also have repair facilities and motor transport garages.



The 10 barracks of 16m x 45m have very distinct AC exhausts fans on both sides of the barracks indicating these are refrigerated cold storages. There are huge 9m wide pipelines underground connecting these barracks with the AC plant. The open vents near every barrack would probably contain refrigeration controls.



The base has a security wall being constructed all around. The perimeter wall length of 2775m surprisingly seems to be hollow with a huge width of 9m. Security walls of such huge width have not been observed after World War II vintage Maginot Line. The corner points are 2m wider than the wall indicating probable guard posts. The wall has slightly raised platforms every 25m. It is likely that some kind of weapon emplacements would soon be seen on top of these guard posts.
