UN urges probe into Malian soldier deaths
The UN Secretary-General has called for making the investigation into the killing of nearly 50 Malian soldiers by jihadists and Tuareg separatists on a military convoy in northern Mali a priority. This follows the control of the town of N'Viss by the Azawad Liberation Front and the Islamic Supergroup. A UN statement emphasized the need for an independent and comprehensive investigation into the circumstances of the incident, especially after footage emerged showing soldiers surrendering with their hands behind their heads and being shot, raising concerns about possible torture and extrajudicial killings. These developments occur amid worsening security conditions in Mali following two military coups in 2020 and 2021, with the military government pledging to maintain security and restore stability.
