Two United Nations peacekeepers were killed and seven others injured in a suicide attack on a UN patrol base in northern Mali on Saturday.
An explosive-laden pick-up truck drove into the UN camp in Ber, reports BBC.
The attack killed three people including a suicide attacker. The deceased soldiers were from Burkina Faso and were serving in the UN.
However, it is unclear who was behind the attack.
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned the attack.
France intervened militarily in Mali last year in a bid to drive out Islamists who had taken advantage of an uprising by Tuareg rebels in the north of the country.
