With ’s mandate due to end by the end of 2026, after a Security Council decision in August 2025, residents of the southern Lebanese town of Ibl al-Saqi express concern that the withdrawal will affect their livelihoods and security. A shop owner says UNIFIL personnel make up most of his customers, while the municipality head warns of a security and economic vacuum. The force includes about 7,500 personnel from nearly 50 countries, and about 400 Lebanese work with it, as Lebanon calls for an extension of its mandate.
