                Republic (CAR), in particular resolutions 2121 (2013) and 2127 (2013),
                      Reaffirming its strong commitment to the sovereignty, independence, unity and
                territorial integrity of the CAR, and recalling the importance of the principles of
                non-interference, good-neighbourliness and regional cooperation,
                      Expressing deep concern at the continuing deterioration of the security
                situation in the CAR, characterized by a total breakdown in law and order, the
                absence of the rule of law, religiously motivated targeted killings and arson, and
                further expressing its grave concern about the consequences of instability in the
                CAR, on the central African region and beyond, and stressing in this regard the need
                for the international community to respond swiftly,
                      Condemning the attacks occurring in the CAR and, in particular those that
                have taken place since 5 December 2013 in Bangui which left more than 1,000
                people dead and hundreds of thousands persons internally displaced, and which have
                triggered widespread violence between Christian and Muslim communities across
                the country,
                      Remaining seriously concerned by multiple and increasing violations of
                international humanitarian law and the widespread human rights violations and

                arbitrary arrests and detention, torture, sexual violence against women and children,

                      Alarmed by the increasing cycle of violence and retaliation and degeneration
                into a countrywide religious and ethnic divide, with the potential to spiral into an
                uncontrollable situation, including serious crimes under international law in
                particular war crimes and crimes against humanity, with serious regional implications,

           sexual violence, killing and maiming, abductions and attacks on schools and
           hospitals and further calls upon Transitional Authorities to make and implement

           those children who have been released or otherwise separated from armed forces
           and armed groups, and emphasizes the need to pay particular attention to the

           to hold perpetrators accountable, in line with its resolutions 1960 (2010) and 2106
           (2013), and to facilitate immediate access for victims of sexual violence to available

           personnel and the timely delivery of humanitarian assistance to populations in need,

           assistance;
                27. Expresses deep concern at the increasing numbers of internally displaced
           persons as a result of the ongoing violence, stresses the need to ensure that the basic
           needs of those persons are met, in particular access to water, food and shelters, and
           commends UN humanitarian agencies and partners for their efforts to provide urgent
           and coordinated support to the population in need in the CAR while also
