Foreign and Commonwealth Office written question – answered at on 24 July 2015.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what is their estimate of how many peacekeepers in Sudan and South Sudan have been attacked between 2005 and 2014, excluding carjackings and household robberies; and how many of those incidents resulted in a significant loss of weapons and ammunition from United Nations and African Union Peace operations in Darfur and South Sudan.
We do not keep a record of the number of specific incidents, but there is no reason for us to doubt the findings of the Small Arms Survey report that there have been over 100 attacks on peacekeepers in Sudan and South Sudan between 2005 and 2014, the vast majority in Darfur. We are unable to independently estimate how many of these incidents resulted in a significant loss of weapons and ammunition.
