The United Nations Integrated Multidimensional Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) condemned with the utmost energy the attacks on a Malian G5 Sahel unit position in Boulkessi and the Malian Armed Forces (FAMa) in Mondoro, on 30 September and 1st of October 2019 in central Mali.

Speaking today (2 Oct) to reporters in New York, UN spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric said, “The mission and all of us extend our deepest condolences to the Government of Mali and to the grieving families. The Mission wishes a speedy recovery to the injured.”
