Deutsche Welle: UN base in northern Mali fired upon, investigators probe Bamako shooting



A United Nations base in northeastern Mali has come under rocket fire, with three people killed. The attack comes as authorities hunt those involved in a shooting at a Bamako restaurant.



The UN mission in Kidal said more than 30 rockets and shells were fired at its base in the northeastern town on Sunday morning, killing one UN soldier and two civilians. The civilians were members of a nomadic tribe and stray rockets landed on their encampment, news agencies reported. The UN returned fire in the direction of the attack. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the rocket fire.
