Lebanese and Israeli forces could be left face-to-face with no third-party buffer, UN peace chief warns

Lebanon ·

The warning came from Jean-Pierre Lacroix, the UN under-secretary-general for peace operations, on Wednesday. He said the Lebanese army and Israeli forces could face each other with no buffer force in place when the UN Interim Force in Lebanon's mandate expires in December, and asked the Security Council for guidance on the next steps.

UNIFIL was established in 1978 to monitor the border with Israel and support the Lebanese army, and has operated in south Lebanon for decades through successive conflicts.
