Additionally, earlier on Monday, Indian and French soldiers engaged in a friendly tug-of-war competition in Meghalaya. This was part of a joint military exercise named ‘SHAKTI 2024’.

The United Nations Mission in the Sudan (UNMIS) was established by the UN Security Council in 2005 following a Peace Agreement between the Sudanese government and the Sudan People's Liberation Movement.

The UNMIS plays a significant role in the implementation of the Peace Agreement. UNMIS tasks include providing humanitarian assistance, protection, promotion of human rights, and supporting the African Union Mission in Sudan.
