On 25 May 2022 the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 2633 on the situation in South Sudan. Resolution 2633 renewed the sanctions regime, including targeted sanctions and an arms embargo, until 31 May 2023, as well as the mandate of the Panel of Experts of the 2206 South Sudan Sanctions Committee until 1 July 2023. The resolution emphasizes that “those responsible for violations of international humanitarian law and violations and abuses of human rights must be held accountable, and that the RTGNU bears the primary responsibility to protect its population from genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleansing, and crimes against humanity.”
