Honeybees crawl on the rack of a beehive in Baker, West Virginia, on May 9, 2026. In a lot behind a disused West Virginia gas station at the foot of the Appalachian Mountains, Roy Funkhouser is surrounded by about a dozen beekeepers and hundreds more buzzing bees. The group -- and beekeepers across the country -- face a new challenge: The government’s closure of a key research facility, home to the nation’s oldest bee lab that has been at the vanguard of research into bee ills for over a century. Funkhouser, a veteran commercial beekeeper, should have around 1,200 hives under his care. This year, he's sitting on less than 200. (Photo by Paul Blake / AFP)

A witness poses for a portrait at a makeshift camp near the Mauritanian border with Mali, in the Hodh Ech Chargui region, on April 29, 2026. Nedoune was kidnapped and tortured by Russian mercenaries two years ago as they questioned him. Having come to power through a coup d’йtat in 2020 on the promise of restoring security throughout the country, the junta led by General Assimi Goпta began turning as early as 2021 to the services of the Russian Wagner militia.Since becoming Africa Corps, now directly under the authority of the Russian Ministry of Defense, the group’s abuses have been widely documented by human rights organizations. A dozen Malian refugees have testified to AFP from Mauritania about the violence committed against civilians by the Malian army and the Russian mercenaries supporting it in their fight against jihadism: abductions, torture, executions, and rape.
