Jordanian Gendarmerie in Central African Republic to evaluate joining MINUSCA
A team from the Jordanian Gendarmerie meets with the Congolese FPU in action supporting African-led International Support Mission to the Central African Republic (MISCA) Police to evaluate their support in deploying UN peacekeepers to the Central African Republic (CAR) in Bangui on 20 June 2014.
Fighting broke out in CAR when the mainly Muslim Seleka alliance seized power in a coup in March 2013. UN agencies estimate that 2 million people, almost half of the population, are in need of assistance. The Security Council voted on 10 April 2014 to send 12,000 peacekeepers to help return order to CAR.
