The Kabul Tribune (KT) — The United Nations is set to hold a meeting on Monday to discuss the extension of the UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA), according to the organization.

The meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Afghanistan time, during which the 15 members of the UN Security Council will vote on whether to extend the mission.

UNAMA’s mandate was last extended for three months on March 16, 2026, and is due to expire on June 17, leaving only a few days before its deadline.

The outcome of the meeting will determine whether the UN’s political mission in Afghanistan will continue its operations in the country.
