In a joint statement issued today (31 Dec), Secretary-General António Guterres and the Chairperson of the African Union Commission (AUC) Moussa Faki Mahamat called on all Sudanese actors to ensure the safe and orderly drawdown of African Union-United Nations Hybrid Operation in Darfur (UNAMID) over the next six months and the ensuing period of liquidation.
The Secretary-General and the AUC Chairperson reiterated their commitment to continue to support Sudan consolidate peace as the AU-UN hybrid peacekeeping mission in the country’s Darfur region ends its operations on Thursday.
UNAMID was established by the Security Council in July 2007, following conflict in the region. Its mandate was to protect civilians, without prejudice to the responsibility of the Government of Sudan; to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian assistance and ensure the safety of humanitarian personnel.
Its responsibilities also included mediating between the Government of Sudan and non-signatory armed movements on the basis of the Doha Document for Peace in Darfur; and supporting the mediation of community conflict, including through measures to address its root causes.
The authorized strength of the mission included 4,050 military personnel and 2,500 police advisers and formed police units.
Its current deployment, according to UNAMID, is 4,005 military personnel, 480 police advisers, 1,631 formed police unit officers, 483 international civilian staff, 64 UN volunteers, and 945 national civilian staff.
The mission suffered 288 fatalities among its civilian and uniformed personnel, of which 73 were the result of malicious acts.
