I. Introduction
- By its resolution 2116 (2013), the Security Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Mission in Liberia (UNMIL) until 30 September 2014 and requested me to keep it regularly informed of the situation on the ground as UNMIL continues its reconfiguration, as well as of progress towards achieving transition benchmarks and of the progressive handover of security responsibilities to national institutions. The present report provides the requested information, as well as an update on major developments since my report of 12 August 2013 (S/2013/479).
