<p>UN humanitarian helicopters are operated by the United Nations Humanitarian Air
Service (UNHAS), which transports humanitarian organisations and donor representatives
in the DRC and completes airlift operations. Unless specially authorised by the UN
Humanitarian Coordinator or the World Food Programme Country Director, military personnel
may not be carried on UNHAS flights. No arms and ammunition are allowed on board UNHAS
flights. On 23 July 2014 the Humanitarian Coordinator in the DRC authorised the transport
of some MONUSCO staff in UNHAS planes to small bases in the west of the DRC, in areas
where no other transport options are available. MONUSCO staff can only be transported
in civilian clothing, and no military equipment will be transported by UNHAS.</p><p>
