A United Nations (UN) official from Egypt was killed and four others were injured in a bomb attack on the UN mission in Mali.
The UN reported that the attack took place near Tesalit in the Kidal region.
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called on the Malian authorities to "spare no effort in identifying the perpetrators so they can be brought to justice" and added that attacks on peacekeepers can be characterized as war crimes under international law.
Since 2012, there have been clashes between the Malian government and extremist rebels, and the UN mission has been in that country since 2013.
The security situation for peacekeepers is very bad there.
