في 31 آب 2023، اعتمد مجلس الأمن الدولي القرار 2695، الذي مدد ولاية حفظ السلام لقوة الأمم المتحدة المؤقتة في لبنان (اليونيفيل) لمدة عام آخر.
منذ العام 78، يتواجد حفظة السلام التابعون للأمم المتحدة بشكل مستمر في جنوب لبنان، حيث تركّز هدفهم الأساسي على تأكيد انسحاب القوات الإسرائيلية، واستعادة السلام والأمن الدوليين، ومساعدة الحكومة اللبنانية على ضمان عودة سلطتها الفعلية في المنطقة. ولم يتغير هذا التفويض، بل تم تعزيزه بعد حرب عام 2006 من خلال القرار 1701، حيث كلف هذا القرار بعثة اليونيفيل بمراقبة وقف الأعمال العدائية ودعم القوات المسلحة اللبنانية والحكومة. في هذه الحلقة من "سلام من الجنوب"، سنحصل على شرح أفضل لما يعنيه القرار من الناطق الرسمي باسم اليونيفيل السيد أندريا تيننتي.
