Chinese Peacekeepers in Lebanon Clear Border Minefields
(Xinhua-China) Of the 400 members of the Chinese military deployed as UNIFIL peacekeepers, 60 are tasked with clearing mines along the Israel-Lebanon border. Lt.-Col. Luo Qiang, the head supervisor of the demining team, proudly noted the unit's clear record of any accidents and injuries since the beginning of their work in 2006. "The work we do is difficult. It requires such precise attention and it is dangerous, but we are honored to be granted such a task and represent China in doing so," he said.
