Two soldiers killed in Mali by explosive device: army
BAMAKO, Nov 3, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – Two Malian soldiers were killed and
another six injured when an armoured vehicle hit an explosive device, the
army said Sunday.
“A vehicle of the Malian armed forces hit an improvised explosive device”
near the central town of Bandiagara, the military said in a tweet.
The incident follows an attack on Friday in northeastern Mali that left 49
Malian soldiers dead amid a jihadist revolt in the West African country.
