The United Nations plans to strengthen its peacekeeping mission in Lebanon to provide better support to the Lebanese army after a truce is reached. However, the mission will not directly enforce a ceasefire. UNIFIL, the peacekeeping mission deployed in southern Lebanon, aims to monitor the demarcation line with Israel. Efforts to end the hostilities have focused on UN resolution 1701, which requires Hezbollah to remove fighters and weapons from certain areas. UNIFIL will work with the Lebanese army to support the implementation of a settlement and is discussing its needs with contributing nations.
