Radio France Internationale (RFI) released an investigation on April 4, 2026, detailing Ukraine's expanded military activity in Libya, indicating approximately 200 Ukrainian personnel are operating in western Libya, coordinating with the Tripoli-based government and deployed at sites like the Air Force Academy in Misrata, amid an intensifying shadow conflict with Russia. Previously, on March 22, 2026, Mozambique’s National Communications Institute (INCM) temporarily suspended an RFI broadcasting frequency, citing concerns over interference with critical aeronautical communications following an incident in Maputo on March 20, 2026. Earlier, on January 29, 2026, RFI's Chinese version published an article highlighting a French immigration report that ranked Chinese immigrants highly, based on a Le Monde report. This followed RFI's Chinese-language website reporting on January 20, 2026, that French newspaper Le Monde characterized the Chinese economy as "K-shaped" due to serious structural imbalance, citing analysis by Le Monde's Beijing correspondent Harold Thibault.
