As the UN Security Council’s draft report on Unficyp, released on Friday, slammed both sides in Cyprus for violating the military status quo along the ceasefire lines and raised concerns over criminal activities in the buffer zone, it is set to meet later in the day to renew the force’s mandate.
The mandate of the UN peacekeeping force in Cyprus (Unficyp) is expected to be extended until January 31, 2026.
