BAMAKO, Mali 

Mali suspended another French TV station, according to a statement Wednesday.

The High Authority of Communication (HAC) proceeded to withdraw the service of TV5 Monde from authorized distributors for three months, it said.

The decision follows violations of legislative and regulatory texts on media regulation detected Aug. 26.

The HAC criticized TV5 Monde for not taking into account the version of the Malian army in a broadcast regarding the death of at least 15 civilians in drone strikes in the northern Tinzaouatene region.

In 2022, the HAC permanently suspended the broadcasts of France24 television and RFI radio.

LCI, another French television channel, was suspended July 27 for two months.
