The UN Security Council (UNSC) on Tuesday adopted a resolution extending sanctions against armed groups operating in the Central African Republic (CAR), as well as individuals undermining peace in the country, for one year—until July 31, 2026.
Adopted unanimously by the 15-member council, Resolution 2789 instructs all the member states to “take the necessary measures to prevent the direct or indirect supply, sale or transfer of arms and related materiel of all types to armed groups and associated individuals operating in that country,” according to a UNSC meeting coverage.
