Contrary to the State House official statement, this strong Senegalese military delegation was not in The Gambia to only “ visit the Senegalese ECOMIG contingent “. Instead, the Senegalese military top command was mainly in Banjul to finalize the last touches of an additional deployment of 625 troops under the ECOWAS mandate. In fact, the delegation from Dakar that visited Barrow included top strategists of the various Senegalese military international deployment missions around the globe including Colonel Mactar Diop, Colonel Diadie Diop, and Medical Colonel Abdoul Aziz Ndiaye, Colonel Magatte Ba, Colonel Jean Dieme, Colonel Magatte Ndiaye, Lv.

Palmares: The Only African Kingdom That Thrived In The Americas

Photo Credit:  Wikimedia Commons Palmares: The Only African Kingdom That Thrived In The Americas Black History   ,  Brazil Brunno Braga   •   Aug 31, 2021 In  Brazil , Palmares is one of the most respected historic sites among the  Afro-Brazilian  community. The famous kingdom was the largest enslaved runaway community in the history of the Atlantic world.

  BOEING 777S WITH PW4000 ENGINES MAY NOT FLY UNTIL 2022 by  Spyros Georgilidakis   Reports claim that 777s with PW4000 engines won’t return to service until next year. United Airlines hoped to use these jets this summer. This development relates to the ongoing investigation into  United 328’s engine failure  over Denver, last February.  It affects a relatively small number of airlines, whose 777s have PW4000 engines. The FAA and other aviation authorities around the world grounded these aircraft, after the incident. Photo by @JacdecNew  On the 20th of February, a United Airlines Boeing 777-200 with PW4077 engines, experienced an engine failure shortly after take-off.  The final NTSB report is still to come.
