Organizations/Agencies

UNIFIL (United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon) was created in 1978 to confirm Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon, restore the international peace and security, and help the Lebanese Government restore its effective authority in the area.

 

UNTSO (United Nations Truce Supervisory Organization), set up in 1948, was the first peacekeeping operation established by the United Nations. UNTSO military observers remain in the Middle East to monitor ceasefires, supervise armistice agreements, prevent isolated incidents from escalating and assist other UN peacekeeping operations in the region.
