On 14 April 2018, militants attacked the MINUSMA base in Timbuktu Airport, known informally as the "super camp".[2] The JNIM later claimed responsibility for the attack, in reprisal for the deaths of some of their commanders in clashes that occurred about a week earlier.[4]

Attack

JNIM militants began their attack on 14 April 2018 by launching 11 rockets and mortar shells at the MINUSMA super camp. Two vehicles carrying militants disguised as peacekeepers later approached the camp,[2] one of which exploded inside the base, whilst the other was disabled before it reached troops.[5] MINUSMA peacekeepers, French troops, and a small group of American soldiers[1] exchanged gunfire with JNIM militants both inside the camp and outside the perimeter walls, resulting in the deaths of 15 militants and one MINUSMA soldier from Burkina Faso. Seven MINUSMA peacekeepers and seven French soldiers were also wounded.[6][7]

It was later reported that the disabled vehicle had been previously used by Al-Qaeda in previous attacks. An abandoned motorbike with an apparent bomb inside it was also found near the base. The United Nations announced that the attack was repelled and condemned the attack.[8]
