In an attempt to contain the war in the former Yugoslavia, the Security Council decided on 21 March 1992 to set up the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR). The peace force was made up of 3 components: a military component, a civil component and a police component.
Dutch military personnel in UNPROFOR
UNPROFOR deployed 12 infantry battalions and one engineer battalion in the Croatian conflict area. Communications between the 12 infantry battalions, the engineer battalion and the headquarters were provided by a Dutch signal battalion, which stationed a communications centre of approximately 11 military personnel at each of these units.
