INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY
France has launched disciplinary proceedings against several soldiers photographed with the Rhodesian flag, which has become a symbol of white supremacism. Rhodesia’s white-minority government opposed African decolonization and fought nationalist movements until Zimbabwe gained independence in 1980. The photos were reportedly shared in racist online groups, prompting the French military to stress that its personnel must maintain political neutrality, including on social media. Source: RFI
