United Nations Security Council Resolution 1381

United Nations Security Council resolution 1381, adopted unanimously on 27 November 2001, after considering a report by the Secretary-General Kofi Annan regarding the United Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) and reaffirming Resolution 1308 (2000), the Council extended its mandate for a further six months until 31 May 2002.

The resolution called upon the parties concerned to immediately implement Resolution 338 (1973) and requested that the Secretary-General submit a report on the situation at the end of that period.

The Secretary-General's report pursuant to the previous resolution on UNDOF said that the situation between Israel and Syria had remained calm with no serious incidents though the situation in the Middle East as a whole remained dangerous until a settlement could be reached. It noted that both sides had co-operated with UNDOF though restrictions remained on its freedom of movement, and it also highlighted the dangers of minefields.
