The United Nations Security Council has strongly condemned the recent attack against the United Nations Mission in South Sudan, UNMISS, calling on all parties to immediately adhere to the permanent ceasefire called for in an August 2015 peace agreement.
"The members of the Security Council recalled that individuals who, directly or indirectly, engage in attacks against United Nations missions, international security presence, or other peacekeeping operations, or humanitarian personnel, may be designated for targeted sanctions," said a statement issued by the 15-member body.
Further in the statement, the council members expressed appreciation for the actions taken by UNMISS peacekeepers to repel the 3rd May attack, further condemned the continued violence committed by all parties, including ongoing military offensives, and called for the removal of all obstacles to the delivery of lifesaving humanitarian assistance.
