More about:

The UN Security Council decided on 24 March «to establish the United Nations mission in Sudan (UNMIS) for an initial period of six months (...) and that UNMIS will consist of up to 10,000 military personnel». The decision, which was voted unanimously by its 15 members, did not resolve the question of which jurisdiction will prosecute suspects in Darfur. The French ambassador filed a draft resolution on the eve of the vote to send perpetrators before the International Criminal Court (ICC). He announced that the vote to decide this will take place on Wednesday, 30 March.
