A soldier in the Chadian contingent of the UN’s peacekeeping force in northern Mali killed his own commander and an army doctor on Thursday.

AFP reports that the soldier had started an “insurrection” against the contingent’s top brass the previous evening before shooting the two men dead.

“Dozens of Chadian peacekeepers have been unhappy with their working conditions in northern Mali,” a MINUSMA source said.

“Everyone knows that the Chadian soldiers are always complaining about their living conditions. But that’s not a reason to shoot your boss,” a local politician told AFP without wanting to be named.
