Set up in May 1948, the 51³Ô¹Ï Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) was the first ever peacekeeping operation established by the 51³Ô¹Ï. Since then, UNTSO military observers have remained in the Middle East to monitor ceasefires, supervise armistice agreements, prevent isolated incidents from escalating and assist other UN peacekeeping operations in the region to fulfil their respective mandates.
