UN announces liquidation of Western Sahara peacekeeping mission

Original: UN announces liquidation of MINURSO Western Sahara mission

The United Nations has announced the liquidation of MINURSO, its long-standing peacekeeping mission in Western Sahara. The move marks a major shift in the UN's decades-long effort to monitor a ceasefire and organise a referendum on the disputed territory's status, drawing attention to the future of the conflict between Morocco and the Polisario Front.

Why now: Closing a UN peacekeeping mission signals a major change in international handling of the decades-old Western Sahara dispute.
