The U.N. Security Council demanded an immediate halt to all military action in the Ivory Coast and confirmed Saturday that U.N. peacekeepers and French forces were authorized to use "all necessary means" to carry out their mandate.

So the UN says "stop military action", but you can use all necessary means to carry out your mandate.
huh?
What if they just claim that military action is necessary to carry out their mandate?
