[Ynet] The United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
mission in Mali says two peacekeepers have been killed and two others seriously injured when a convoy hit a mine in the northern Kidal region.

The mission says in a statement that the two injured peacekeepers were immediately evacuated Tuesday after their vehicles hit the explosives about 15 kilometers outside of Aguelhok.

A UN official says the peacekeepers were Chadian. The UN condemned the attack and others by Islamic turbans.
