One of UNIFIL’s more than 50 positions in south Lebanon made history recently by becoming the first such position to rely fully on the sun for its energy needs.

UNIFIL today hosted about 100 children of the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) personnel at its headquarters in Naqoura for special musical performances by the young visitors, joined by UN peacekeepers.

Over the course of several weeks, UNIFIL’s multinational units in the mission’s eastern sector participated in various coordinated activities and exercises with the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) personnel with the aim of mutually enhancing and honing their skills.
