Unifil struggles enforcing Israel-Hezbollah cease-fire agreement

**Summary:** Unifil struggles to enforce Israel-Hezbollah cease-fire despite monitoring duties, faced with hostilities and Hezbollah’s rearmament in Lebanon.

Published

The recent cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah marks a significant moment after a year of conflict.

The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) is tasked with monitoring compliance, but it lacks the authority and means to enforce a buffer zone.

The cease-fire agreement outlines a 60-day period for the Israeli military to withdraw, while the Lebanese military will attempt to secure the border and prevent the resurgence of Hezbollah’s presence.

However, previous efforts by both Unifil and the Lebanese military to curb Hezbollah’s operations have been largely ineffective.

Historically, Unifil has faced challenges stemming from its mandate since its establishment in 1978, which has expanded over the years but remains difficult to implement.

Ongoing violation

Unifil reports violations to the Israeli and Lebanese armies, which are responsible for taking action.

In recent years, peacekeepers have encountered hostility from local populations and restrictions on their movements.

Reports indicate ongoing violations, including unauthorized weapons and rocket fire, with Hezbollah’s military capabilities growing despite Unifil’s observations.
