Sahara Mission Wind-Down
The United Nations has begun winding down the MINURSO mission in Western Sahara after its mandate expired at midnight on Saturday without being renewed. A small team will oversee the return of equipment belonging to contributing countries and the disposal of UN property. Established in 1991, the mission had 359 personnel as of June 2026. The mandate was not renewed after Russia vetoed a US draft resolution that had the support of 11 of the Security Council’s 15 members. Secretary-General António Guterres called for respect for the people of Western Sahara’s right to self-determination and urged restraint. He affirmed that the UN remained ready to support dialogue and a peaceful settlement through his Personal Envoy.
