"Operation Unokat, also styled Operation UNOKAT, was an offensive undertaken by United Nations peacekeeping forces from 5 to 21 December 1961 against the gendarmerie of the State of Katanga, a secessionist state rebelling against the Republic of the Congo (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo) in Central Africa. The United Nations had tried several times to reconcile the government of the Congo with the State of Katanga, which had declared independence under Moà se Tshombe with Belgian support in 1960.Following the failure of Operation Morthor and the death of Secretary-General of the United Nations Dag Hammarskjà ld in a plane crash, the new Secretary-General U Thant, backed by renewed international support, called for a more robust peacekeeping approach and for the UN to take more military action. A number of skirmishes between Katangese troops and UN forces in the Katangese capital of Ãlisabethville, and the establishment of roadblocks by the Katangese, led to the UN launching Operation Unokat.
