By Josef Skrdlik PORT LOKO DISTRICT, Sierra Leone — At 5 a.m., as the horizon brightens and waves start to subside, more than a dozen wooden canoes along the shoreline between the settlements of Mahera Beach and Banda in northern Sierra Leone set off into the ocean.

Weights attached to the net fall to the ocean floor, trapping fish on the beach side. Once the semicircle is complete, the net’s other end is dragged to shore. Two groups of four fishers then take hold of each end a...

By Elodie Toto Some $5 million worth of timber exported from the Democratic Republic of Congo to China in the second half of 2022 was felled illegally, according to a watchdog report. The timber was exported by Congo King Baisheng Forestry Development, known variously as Cokibafode or CKBFD in short, which in April 2022 was found by DRC authorities to have been awarded concessions in violation of local law. U.K.-based advocacy group Global Witness traced some of the wood to these disputed concessions. It also gathered evidence that the company has been logging without regard to forest manageme...
