Naqoura, Lebanon - The United Nations
Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) yesterday began broadcasting its first
own radio programme in Arabic.
The programme "Salam from the South" is broadcasted on four local radio stations. For 10 minutes every other week, the radio programme will tell listeners first-hand news about UNIFIL. The programme will also bring voices of the people of south Lebanon, with their views on UNIFIL activities and their outlook relating to peacekeeping in their midst.
The radio will complement the other means of communications UNIFIL is already using - a magazine, video programs and the web - to reach out to people of Lebanon to inform them about UNIFIL, its role, mandate and activities.
UNIFIL Radio programmes are also available on our website: http://unifil.unmissions.org/
