Macron to formally announce end of Operation Barkhane in Sahel on Wednesday

The French Presidency has announced that President Emmanuel Macron will formally announce tomorrow, Wednesday, the end of the anti-terror operation Barhane in the Sahel region, about three months after the withdrawal of Barhane forces from Mali.

The Elysee Palace reported that the head of state, who is on a visit to the French city of Toulon, will deliver a speech that will provide “an opportunity to officially announce the end of Operation Barkhane and a serious adaptation of our bases in Africa.”

This announcement will not affect French military power in the region.
