Seven UN peacekeepers were injured in a blast in Mali on Saturday when their convoy struck a homemade explosive device, according to the UN Multi-National Task Force in Mali (MINUSMA). The incident occurred approximately 34 kilometers from the city of Douentza. The peacekeepers are receiving “appropriate treatment,” though the UN did not disclose their nationalities or specific conditions. This marks one of six similar bomb attacks in Mali’s central region this year. Jihadists have been planting landmines and homemade explosive devices on roads since 2012, targeting foreign troops and state symbols. These attacks have resulted in dozens of fatalities, including soldiers and civilians, over the years. Since 2013, eighty UN peacekeepers have been killed in such incidents. The MINUSMA mission currently includes over 12,000 military personnel deployed in Mali. Topics: #mali #seven #peacekeepers Post navigation WOMEN’S STORY ⟩ “Anyone can get dozens of powerful orgasms.
