MINUSMA established — Key Events — Sahel

What happened

The UN Security Council creates the Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali, which grows into one of the UN's largest operations — and its deadliest peacekeeping mission of the era.

MINUSMA became the scaffolding of the post-2013 order: protection in the northern cities, logistics the state lacked, and a documentation record — while never having a peace to keep.
