A UN Security Council resolution has approved the role of a UN mission in Colombia to oversee and monitor a ceasefire agreed between the government and the National Liberation Army (Ejercito de Liberacion Nacional, ELN). The ceasefire entered into force in the beginning of August, after negotiations facilitated by international actors over the summer. The ceasefire will be in place for 180 days.
