										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — The president of Mali’s transitional government signed a decree Tuesday dissolving political parties amid a backdrop of pro-democracy opposition, a minister in the government announced.</p>
<p>The decision by Gen. Assimi Goita comes amid a surge in kidnappings of pro-democracy activists in the capital Bamako and just days after a demonstration by several hundred pro-democracy activists.</p>
<p>“Political parties and organizations of a political nature are dissolved throughout the national territory,” announced Mamani Nassire, the minister delegate to the prime minister in charge of political reforms and support for the electoral process.</p>
<p>Nassire was reading from a decree signed by Goita on national TV. The decree was announced after an extraordinary council of ministers meeting Tuesday.</p>
<p>The decree reads: “It is forbidden for members of dissolved political parties and political organizations to hold any meetings.”</p>

<p class="c-paragraph">The authorities started executing the order on Jan. 11 against gold stockpiled at the Loulo-Gounkoto operations, according to a Barrick memo seen by Bloomberg. The order was issued a week ago, according to the Canadian miner.</p>
<p class="c-paragraph">The world’s No. 2 gold producer is locked in a dispute with the Malian government that centers on the distribution of revenue from the vast Loulo-Gounkoto complex. Shipments from the mine have been blocked since November, the memo said.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>West African bloc ECOWAS on Wednesday strongly condemned jihadist attacks which a day earlier hit the Malian capital where locals voiced concern and questions remained about the rare and deadly strike.</p>
<p>An Al-Qaeda-linked group on Tuesday claimed responsibility for the attack in Bamako against highly sensitive targets, including a military police training centre and the military airport.</p>
<div class="paywall">
<p>The operation was the first of its kind in years and was a forceful blow to the ruling junta, experts say.</p>
<p>The Malian capital is normally spared the sort of attacks that occur almost daily in some parts of the West African country.</p>
