I am monitoring the situation in Congo: Sushma Swaraj
"Congo blast - I am monitoring the situation personally. Our mission will ensure best possible treatment to the injured," Swaraj tweeted.
Thirty two Indian peacekeepers were injured in an explosion that killed a child in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo city of Goma on Tuesday morning, media reports said quoting the U.N. mission in Congo.
The blast took place when the peacekeepers were out running in the western Goma neighbourhood of Keyshero.
The cause of the explosion is yet to be ascertained.
