Summary

UNTSO is the first UN peacekeeping mission that is purely an observation mission. UNTSO's operational area is the Middle East, specifically Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria. The headquarters of the mission is located in Jerusalem. UNTSO military observers have been active in the region for decades, standing between the hostile sides and thus preventing local clashes from escalating into a major conflict center in the Middle East. As a member of the United Nations, Estonia contributes ensuring security in crisis areas. Consistent participation in UN operations has been important for Estonia and has increased Estonia's visibility, including as an elected member of the UN Security Council in 2020-2021. The participation of the Estonian armed forces in UN operations helps to strengthen Estonia's contribution to the activities of the UN in securing peace. Estonian military observers have been participating in the UNTSO mission since 1997.
