Four United Nations peacekeepers died and 15 others were injured when their convoy drove over a landmine in northern Mali, a UN spokesman said Tuesday according to dpa.
A group of Chadian peacekeepers was patrolling a road between the northern town of Kidal and Aguelhok when the mine went off.
Of the 15 injured soldiers, six were in serious condition, said UNMission in Mali (Minusma) spokesman Olivier Salgado
