UN Security Council Resolution 1701
A 2006 Security Council resolution that ended the July war between Israel and Hezbollah and remains the framework for security arrangements in south Lebanon and UNIFIL's role.
The Security Council adopted Resolution 1701 in August 2006 to end hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah. It calls for Israel's withdrawal from south Lebanon, a strengthened UNIFIL, and no armed forces other than the Lebanese Army and UNIFIL south of the Litani River. It remains a key reference in debates over arrangements after UNIFIL's mandate ends.
