The government has officially requested the expansion of the mandate to secure the northern border. Your collective action played a critical role in bringing this necessity to the attention of those in power. We will remain observant as the implementation process begins.

من أجل لبنان، لنوقع على هذه العريضة ونطالب بتوسيع عمل القوة الدولية من خلال القرار ١٧٠١، لحماية الحدود اللبنانية السورية


Lebanon's stability is jeopardized by militants and terrorists illegally crossing its border from and into Syria.


The latest crisis resulted in the kidnapping of Soldiers and Security forces as well as the killing of innocent Civilians. This crisis almost dragged Lebanon into civil war.


The United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701 (UNSCR 1701) mentions that "The UN Forces shall assist the Government of Lebanon, at its request, to secure its border".


UNSCR 1701 proved to be efficient in securing the Southern Border with Israel. We demand to expand the mission and help the Lebanese Army secure the Border with Syria.


Lebanon is in danger! The future of our families is at risk! It is every citizen's responsibility to lobby for the protection of the entire Lebanese Border.


Every signature makes a difference!


Sign this petition. Share it with your friends and family in Lebanon and abroad. We will hand it to the Lebanese Government as soon as we reach a significant number of signatures.

The army is doing their best but they need backup. UN forces should be deployed on the north and east borders too.

KEEP LEBANON SAFE. We are tired of the kidnapping and the constant fear. Control the borders already.
