SECURITY COUNCIL TO HOLD EMERGENCY TALKS ON UN PEACEKEEPING FORCE IN
GOLAN HEIGHTSNew York, Jun 7 2013 12:00PMThe Security Council has
strongly condemned the "intense" fighting in the Golan Heights,
including the attack that injured two United Nations peacekeepers
yesterday, and is set to hold closed-door talks today on the latest
developments, including the decision by one of the major troop
contributors to withdraw its soldiers from the mission amid escalating
violence in Syria.

The two peacekeepers serving with the UN Disengagement Observer Force
(UNDOF) are reported to be in stable condition after sustaining minor
injuries on Thursday. The mission, which is responsible for monitoring
the 1974 disengagement accord between Syria and Israel, has come under
increasing threat and attacks in recent months as fighting between
Syrian forces and anti-government groups continues unabated.

"The members of the Security Council called upon all parties to fully
cooperate with UNDOF in good faith to enable it to operate freely and
to ensure full security of its personnel," Ambassador Mark Lyall Grant
of the United Kingdom, which holds the rotating presidency of the
Council for June, said in a
<"http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs//2013/sc11027.doc.htm">statement
read out to the press.

"The members of the Security Council expressed their deep concern at
the risk that all military activities in the area of separation
conducted by any actor pose to the long-held ceasefire and the local
population."

The 15-member body also noted with grave concern that there have been
a number of incidents threatening the safety and security of UN
personnel in recent months and underscored they would continue to
monitor the situation closely.

Mr. Lyall Grant told reporters that Council members are scheduled to
receive a briefing later today by Under-Secretary-General for
Peacekeeping Operations Hervé Ladsous on the latest developments.

Yesterday, Austria – which contributes about one-third of UNDOF's
troops – informed Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon of its decision to
withdraw its soldiers, reportedly citing a lack of freedom of movement
and an unacceptable level of danger to its personnel.

Mr. Ban voiced his regret at Austria's decision, while expressing his
gratitude to those countries who are continuing to provide troops and
military observers to the mission.Jun 7 2013 12:00PM
