(g) prevent the participation of persons and teams representing Yugoslavia in sporting events hosted on their territory;
(h) suspend scientific, technical and cultural exchanges and visits.
The Council further decided that the sanctions should not apply to the United Nations Protection Force, the Conference on Yugoslavia or European Community Monitoring Mission. It also called for a security zone to be established in Sarajevo and its airport, further calling on the security council committee established in Resolution 724 should monitor the arms embargo, and that the council as a whole will keep the situation under review.
