    United Nations Security Council Resolution 650 was adopted unanimously on 27 March 1990. After recalling resolutions 637 (1989) and 644 (1989), the Security Council endorsed the report by the Secretary-General and decided to authorise an enlargement of the United Nations Observer Group in Central America (ONUCA) in order to demobilise the Contras in Nicaragua.[1]

    The size of ONUCA was increased by an additional 800 personnel, including the addition of a Venezuelan combat battalion and security to oversee weapons disposal in Honduras.[2][3] It also authorized the addition of armed personnel to its ranks and requested that the Secretary-General keep the Council updated on the resolution's implementation.
