Headline UN Disengagement Observer Force in the Middle East

Caption Description On 31 May 1974, Israel and Syria signed an agreement to cease fire, seperate their armies on the Golan Heights and repatriate wounded and other prisoners-of-war held by either side. In accordance with the terms of the agreement the Security Council immediately set up a UN Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) to supervise the implementation of the agreement for an initial period of 6 month. The 1200-man force became operational on 6 June 1974. By 26 June the four phases of the disengagement agreement had been completed smoothly and on schedule, and the new UN force had taken up positions in a buffer zone extending from Mt. Hermon in the north to the Jordanian border in the south. At present the force is made up of 519 Austrians, 385 Iranians, 121 Canadians and 75 Polish logistics personnel, 4 Headquarters staff on secondment from the UN Emergency Force (UNEF), and 88 observers from the UN Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) which has been serving in the area since the truce of 1948.
