Lebanon Requests Security Council to Extend UNIFIL
Lebanon has requested the United Nations Security Council to extend the mandate of the peacekeeping forces, "UNIFIL," in the southern part of the country, to maintain stability in the region, despite Israel's opposition to this step. The Lebanese government reaffirmed its continued support for the international presence, considering that the ongoing force is essential to prevent the escalation of Israeli operations in the south. France and most Security Council members expressed their support for Lebanon's request and proposed ideas such as establishing multinational peacekeeping forces or deploying troops from countries like the United States and France, with the aim of stabilizing the situation after a reduction in violence. It is worth noting that UNIFIL's mission has been ongoing since 1978 and was expanded following Security Council Resolution 1701 in 2006 to monitor the cessation of hostilities and support the Lebanese army.
