KIM'S HOTEL HELL: North Korea Building BEACH RESORT at NUKE Testing Site
At least three times, however, North Korea has been supplying coal using Russian ports in the cities of Nakhodka and Holmes. Neither China nor Russian Federation were invited to attend, and it was unclear what the summit was supposed to accomplish.
The deadly attack forced Mali's President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita to cancel a visit to the African Union summit to be held in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia.
The latest attack comes two days after 26 civilians including mothers and babies were killed when their vehicle ran over a landmine in Boni, central Mali, according to a United Nations death toll.
A statement released on Friday says "MINUSMA condemns with no uncertain terms the heinous attack caused by the explosion of an explosive device against a bus from Burkina Faso on 25 January near the town of Boni, Mali, which claimed more than 20 lives, including women and children". In 2015, the Malian authorities signed an agreement with non-jihadist militant groups, but the deal didn't help a lot in stopping terrorist attacks in the country. But fighters remain active, and large tracts of the country are out of government control.
The Security Council commended the efforts of the region, including the development of a joint military force by the five Sahel countries of Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania and Niger, to address the transnational dimension of the terrorist threat in the Sahel region - the northernmost part of sub-Saharan Africa, a vast belt stretching from the Atlantic coast to the Red Sea.
