United Nations Interim Peacekeeping Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL)
The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) faces increasing challenges as tensions rise along the Lebanon-Israel border. In October 2024, an Israeli tank fired at a UN observation post, injuring two peacekeepers. UNIFIL, which was created in 1978 to monitor peace along the Blue Line, is caught between Israeli military operations and Hezbollah’s activities. While UNIFIL’s presence helps limit full-scale conflict, its ability to manage Hezbollah’s influence is questioned, and the safety of its personnel is increasingly at risk amidst ongoing hostilities.
