UN reaffirms support for UN force in Golan Heights
The UN Security Council is reaffirming its "unconditional support" for maintaining the UN peacekeeping force in the Golan Heights to monitor the 1974 agreement that established a buffer zone between Syria and Israel.
The mission's future had been clouded by the spillover of the Syrian war. Peacekeepers have become targets of al-Qaida-linked rebels who recently seized and later freed 45 Fijians.
