UN Force Keeps Peace Along Iraq/kuwait Border

UN Force Keeps Peace Along Iraq/kuwait Border

2 February 1992

A year ago, Iraq and Kuwait were the scenes of intense warfare. Today, 300 unarmed UN military observers are helping to ensure the border area between these two countries remains calm. UNIKOM is the first peacekeeping mission to include personnel from all five members of the Security Council. Some 34 nations have contributed military observers to this international peacekeeping force, which can now report that it's all quiet along the Iraq/Kuwait border.
