The United Nations has formed a committee to investigate the smuggling of weapons and charcoal trade in Somalia.
The East African nation has experienced an increase in the smuggling of weapons.
On Monday, the UN Security Council (UNSC) voted to form a committee that would pay close attention to the weapons and charcoal trades.
UNSC has already sent letters containing these recommendations to various member states and other organizations.
Recently, Somalia raised a complaint about the charcoal trade.
It informed the UNSC of tons of charcoal that were seized aboard MV Fox, a vessel plying its waters.
