Three Burundian peacekeepers killed in Central African Republic
Peacekeepers of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (Minusca) monitor the arrival of rebel groups on National Road 2 north of Bangui, the capital of the Central African Republic, on December 25, 2020.
Three UN peacekeepers have been killed by unidentified combatants in the Central African Republic, the United Nations said, as the country prepares for a general election and fighting continues between rebels and government forces.
The news came after a rebel coalition called off a ceasefire and said it would resume its march on the capital and following the arrival of troops from Russia and Rwanda to shore up the government of the resource-rich country.
