Guinea inaugurates its first gold refinery in Conakry, aiming to process more of its mineral wealth domestically, per Sana news agency.

The facility is part of Guinea's broader strategy to retain value from its rich mineral resources and reduce reliance on foreign processing, as reported by GazettenGr.

Meanwhile, Guinea’s media regulator has suspended four web TV channels and banned France 24, revoking correspondent accreditation, per Monitor Civicus.
