I. Introduction
1. By its resolution 2759 (2024), the Security Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA) until 15 November 2025 and requested the Secretary-General to report on its implementation every four months. The present report provides an update on significant developments in the Central African Republic since the previous report of 11 October 2024 (S/2024/730).
II. Political situation
2. The reporting period was marked by preparations for local, legislative and presidential elections, with a focus on voter registration, despite funding constraints. The Government, supported by MINUSCA and international partners, took measures to enhance the registration of women and youth. Some political opposition parties denounced the shrinking civic and political space and continued to condition their participation in the polls on direct dialogue with the President. The Government continued efforts to decentralize the peace process and to address persisting instability in various areas, while engaging with some signatory armed groups which remained outside the peace process.
