The U.N. Security Council voted to end an eight-year peacekeeping mission between Eritrea and Ethiopia, a move that the United Nations’ chief has warned could lead to a new war.

Council members voted unanimously to withdraw the remaining peacekeepers from what was once a 1,700-strong force monitoring a 620-mile-long buffer zone between the African neighbors.
