Thirty-five Golan Heights U.N. Filipino peacekeepers managed to hold off an attack by Syrian rebels on Saturday, before a group of fellow Irish and Filipino UN peacekeepers managed to evacuate all UN troops out of the area in armored vehicles in a daring escape on Sunday night. A second UN camp in the Golan Heights was also attacked over the weekend, with some 100 rebels trying to ram through the gates. Rebels demanded the 40 Filipino peacekeepers on the base surrender, but the Filipino troops instead returned fire. In a rare move of cooperation with the international community, Syrian government troops fired shells at rebel positions near the UN site in a bid to stop the UN camp from being overrun. The battle for the camp raged for some seven hours before the Filipino troops fled ...

Their job is to protect the most vulnerable people in what are often impoverished and war-torn regions of the world. But the UN's peacekeepers are facing serious allegations of wide-spread sexual abuse, exploitation and gross misconduct. The latest is in Central African Republic, over the killing of a teenager and his father, and the alleged rape of a 12-year-old girl. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon says he is "angered and ashamed" by the allegations and described them as "a cancer in our system". There are around 118,000 military, police and civilian staff involved in UN peacekeeping. They work across 16 missions. The operations spread from Haiti, Africa, Kosovo, Cyprus, the Middle East and across to India and Pakistan. Military and police personnel have been contributed from 128 count...
United Nations peacekeepers on Friday fired at a crowd of protesters who were demanding new leadership just days after a government-appointed commission recommended that the country's prime minister resign. Thousands of protesters marched through the capital, Port-au-Prince, as they burned tires and clashed with U.N. troops and police, who also fired tear gas.
A call to improve UN peacekeeping missions. The United Nations has more than 100,000 peacekeepers, serving in sixteen missions on four continents. Their goal is to protect civilians, maintain peace and security. But their operations have caused controversy, including allegations of sexual abuse. Demand for peacekeepers in conflict zones continues to rise and the UN is struggling to keep up. 12 months after world leaders pledged to strengthen and modernize peacekeeping operations, the UK is hosting a follow up to see where things stand. Defence ministers from more than 70 countries flew to London to discuss how to improve operations.

This is a programme on how India has contributed to peacekeeping operations in conflict areas around the world. Right from the advent of UN Peacekeeping programme by the United Nations Organization, India has been one of the major contributors to the worldwide effort. Indian Peacekeepers have carried a different style compared to others. Winning hearts and minds has been the key motto of the Indian brigades in peacekeeping missions. They worked with the locals instead of going for confrontation with them. Anchor: Akhilesh Suman
