UNIFIL on Monday honored the contribution of partners in communities, civil society, religious institutions, troop-contributing countries, and others, as the mission marked the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers.
As May 29 fell on a Sunday this year, UNIFIL held its ceremony today at its Naqoura headquarters.
Head of Mission and Force Commander Major General Aroldo Lázaro paid tribute to the tens of thousands of U.N. peacekeepers who have served with UNIFIL over its 44-year existence, including over 11,000 military and civilian personnel serving today.
