Members of the Sri Lanka Force Protection Unit (SLFPU) of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) took part in a cleanup campaign along the beach close to the UNIFIL Headquarters in Naqoura recently.
According the army media sources five officers and thirty five other ranks had involved in the community-oriented project.
The 1 km stretch of beach which had been littered with garbage left by people visiting the area was left unattended for weeks before the Lankan troops had got down and cleaned the place. They were supported by members of the Lebanon armed forces, municipal council representatives and the local people Naqoura.
