peacekeeping operation

A peacekeeping operation is a mission where trained personnel, often from multiple countries, are deployed to help maintain or restore peace in areas affected by conflict or unrest. Their role includes monitoring ceasefires, assisting in the disarmament of combatants, supporting political processes, and helping create secure environments for civilians. These operations are typically authorized by the United Nations and aim to prevent renewed fighting, facilitate dialogue, and promote stability and reconciliation, all while respecting the sovereignty of the host nation.
