Syrian rebel forces made big advances into Syria's North and reached the strategic air base of Abu al-Duhur, more that 30 km from the last known rebel advance yesterday.

Without serious reinforcements, the Assad regime is about to fully collapse along the entire Syria's North.

Still no hard facts on the reconfiguration, i.e. downscaling of #France's military presence in Africa.

recent reports suggest:

##Gabun: 100 (down from 350)
#Senegal (100 down from 350)
#Côte d'ivoire 100 (down from 600)
#Chad 300 (down from 1,000)

Above 59% indicates poverty.
