Azerbaijani servicemen involved in peacekeeping mission in South Sudan

Under the plan, the officers of the Azerbaijan Army officers involved in the peacekeeping mission conducted under the command of the UN Mission (UNMISS) in the Republic of South Sudan returned to Baku.

The international military command highly appreciated the activities of Azerbaijani service members who have participated in the UN Peacekeeping Mission since January 2019.

The Azerbaijan Army involved a new group of servicemen based on rotation in the mission in Juba, the capital of South Sudan.

On November 30, 2018, the Milli Majlis of the Republic of Azerbaijan decided on the deployment of Azerbaijani service members in the Republic of South Sudan and participation in the mission held under the command of the UN peacekeeping mission.
