Quick Summary

The Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) was a United Nations peacekeeping operation established in July 2013. It took over from the African-led International Support Mission in Mali (AFISMA). MINUSMA's primary goal was to support the political process in Mali and help stabilize the country following a 2012 coup and subsequent conflict in the north.12

The mission worked alongside French forces to maintain security and support peace efforts, including a peace accord signed in June 2013 between the Malian government and Tuareg rebels. Despite these efforts, violence continued in northern Mali, with ongoing conflicts involving Islamist militants and infighting among rebel groups. MINUSMA's presence aimed to foster stability and assist Mali in its efforts to reclaim territory and rebuild.12
