-

The Pakistani Blue-Helmets, totaling 272, exhibited unwavering dedication in building and maintaining dikes for Pakistan.

The United Nations has recognized Pakistani peacekeepers deployed with the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS).

They were awarded UN medals for their outstanding efforts in safeguarding around 300,000 residents of Bentiu, the capital of Unity state, from devastating floods.

This information was conveyed in a press release from the Mission received at the UN Headquarters in New York on Tuesday.

The Pakistani Blue-Helmets, totaling 272, exhibited unwavering dedication in building and maintaining dikes.

These structures prevented 5,600 square kilometers of floodwaters from inundating the Bentiu Internally Displaced Person camp, which houses hundreds of thousands of individuals, along with the surrounding infrastructure and service providers.

As their mission concludes, the Pakistani unit received a citation for exceptional performance, with 23 blue helmets being honored with the prestigious Force Commander Commendation Card.

Lieutenant-General Mohan Subramanian, the UNMISS Force Commander, praised the members of the Pakistani unit who attended the ceremony.

He remarked, “Their endeavors in one of the most challenging areas have resulted in significant contributions, achieving critical engineering projects effectively, efficiently, and promptly. These selfless deeds underscore their unwavering professional dedication.”
