UN appreciates BD’s global peacekeeping performance

Staff Reporter :

Bangladesh has achieved profound appreciations from United Nations for its global peacekeeping to serve with unwavering dedication across seven missions.

Bangladesh is the third-largest contributor of UN peacekeepers, with more than 5,600 military and police personnel currently deployed in some of the world’s most fragile regions.
Leaving their families behind, these brave men and women work to protect vulnerable communities, support humanitarian operations, and help build conditions for lasting peace.

The UN has acknowledged the commitment, professionalism, and sacrifices of Bangladeshi peacekeepers, offering heartfelt thanks for their service.

Bangladesh first joined UN peacekeeping operations in 1988 by sending 15 military observers to the UN Iraq-Iran Military Observer Group (UNIIMOG). Since then, its role has expanded significantly.
