The UN Security Council voted Tuesday to prolong its peacekeeping mission in South Sudan for one more year, after Russia and China chose to abstain.
The Council's 13 other members all voted in favour of the resolution, which extends the UN Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) until March 15, 2023 at its current level of deployment.
