United Nations Security Council Resolution 1716, adopted unanimously on October 13, 2006, after reaffirming all resolutions on Abkhazia and Georgia, particularly Resolution 1666 (2006), the Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG) until April 15, 2007.

The resolution, drafted by Russia, initially contained references condemning Georgian operations in the Kodori Valley, but these were later modified to express concern.
