The UN Security Council has unanimously approved the creation of a UN peacekeeping force in the Central African Republic. 

The force will be made up of up to 10,000 troops, 1,800 police and 20 corrections officers.

So far, 8,000 African and French troops have struggled to contain fighting that has pitted Muslim against Christians and displaced one out of every four people in the country.
