Somalia - Security Council, 9764th meeting
Underlining the importance of consolidating peace and security gains in Somalia, the Security Council decided that the United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM) shall be called the United Nations Transitional Assistance Mission in Somalia and that the latter Mission shall begin formal transition of its functions from 1 November.
Unanimously adopting resolution 2753 (2024) (to be issued as document S/RES/2753(2024)), the Council further decided that the Transitional Mission shall deliver the first phase of its transition until 31 October 2025.
Measures set out in paragraph 3 of the resolution constitute the first phase of the Transitional Mission’s anticipated two-phased transition to a United Nations country team, and express its intention to terminate the Mission’s mandate at the end of the anticipated transition by 31 October 2026.
Among transition priorities, the text underscores support for State-building, including the constitutional review process and efforts to conduct free and fair elections; promotion and protection of human rights; rule of law, justice, corrections and security sector support; coordination of international donor support, working with bilateral and multilateral partners; and coordination of United Nations efforts in Somalia.
