At the 5752nd meeting of the Security Council, held on 2 October 2007, in connection with the Council’s consideration of the item entitled “Reports of the Secretary-General on the Sudan”, the President of the Security Council made the following statement on behalf of the Council:

“The Security Council was briefed on 1 October on the recent attack on African Union peacekeepers in Haskanita, South Darfur, Sudan, reportedly committed by a rebel group. The Council condemns this murderous attack and demands that no effort be spared so that the perpetrators be identified and brought to justice.

“The Security Council deplores the loss of life and injuries that resulted from this attack, and conveys its sympathy to the governments, families and colleagues of those killed and injured.

“The Security Council reiterates its support for the African Union Mission in Sudan (AMIS) and commends the dedication of its personnel and expresses its appreciation for those countries which contribute troops to AMIS.

“The Security Council recalls the demand in resolution 1769 (2007) on all parties for an immediate cessation of hostilities and attacks on AMIS, civilians and humanitarian agencies. The Council insists that all parties in the Sudan comply with this demand and cooperate fully with the deployment of the United Nations Light and Heavy Support Packages to AMIS, and with UNAMID.

“The Security Council deplores the fact that this attack took place on the eve of the peace talks starting on 27 October in Tripoli, under the chairmanship of the United Nations and the African Union. The Council underlines that any attempt to undermine the peace process is unacceptable.”
