Red Cross says vehicle carrying five disappears in northern Mali

2^min

The Red Cross said on Monday that one of its vehicles carrying five people went missing two days ago in northern Mali between the towns of Gao and Kidal.

Jean-Yves Clemenzo, a spokesman for the International Committee of the Red Cross based in Geneva, said all five of the people on board the vehicle were Malian.

Earlier, Mali's government said terrorists killed 30 Tuaregs in the north of the country, contradicting reports of clashes between local Tuareg and Peul communities.

Security Minister Sada Samake said on state television Sunday that the Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa, or MUJAO, on Friday ambushed two vehicles full of civilians. State television said 24 were killed in that ambush along with six others in a Tuareg camp not far from the ambush site in the Gao region.

But a statement from the country's United Nations mission Saturday attributed the deaths to "intercommunal clashes."

In November clashes between the Tuareg and Peul communities in the same region killed 15 people.

MUJAO has not claimed responsibility.

Gao fell to MUJAO before a French-led military intervention last year scattered the extremists.
