Headline United Nations Iraq-Kuwait Observation Mission (UNIKOM) Monitors Demilitarized Zone

Caption Description On 3 April 1991, the Security Council voted to establish a formal cease-fire to end the Persian Guld war by adopting a nine-part resolution which provided for a formal truce only after Iraq agreed to be bound by all its provisions. Under the terms of Resolution 687 (1991), a demilitarized zone (DMZ) was established along the Iraq-Kuwait border, to be monitored by a UN observer unit. On 9 April, the Security Council approved the Secretary-General's plan for establishing this unit, the United Nations Iraq -Kuwait Observation Mission (UNIKOM). The mission, consisting of up to 1,440 armed and unarmed military personnel provided by Member States, is charged with monitoring the Khor Abdullah waterway as well as a 200-kilometre-long demilitarized zone. It also aims to deter boundary violations and to observe any hostile or potentially hostile actions, using force only in self-defence.
