The tenth Kazakh peacekeeping
contingent departed to Lebanon. Before the mission, the personnel underwent a
thorough selection process, which assessed their professional and moral
qualities, physical training, as well as foreign language skills. The
peacekeepers will replace the previous team and will be serving in the United Nations
(UN) mission for six months.
“We have received thorough training.
I am confident that our unit will properly fulfill the assigned tasks during
the peacekeeping mission in another country,” said peacekeeping contingent sergeant
Yelaman Nussupkozhayev.
“Our peacekeeping training includes
adherence to the UN mandate, integrating the specifics of activities carried
out in the country our units are deployed to.
As part of the UN mission, the Kazakh contingent, along with the Indian
battalion, will be responsible for base security, foot and air patrols and will
assist in the delivery of humanitarian aid to the residents of Lebanon,” informed
peacekeeping contingent commander Zhasulan Yesmambetov.
Kazakh servicemen engage in
peacekeeping missions worldwide. Their rotation in Lebanon guarantees their
ongoing and effective involvement in these crucial processes. This practice
allows Kazakhstan to continue making contributions to the maintenance of global
security.
