In December 1995, acting under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, the Security Council authorized member states to establish a multinational Implementation Force (IFOR) to deter a resumption of hostilities in Bosnia-Herzegovina by implementing the military aspects of the General Framework Agreement for Peace. In December 1996, the Security Council created a Stabilization Force (SFOR) as legal successor to IFOR. SFOR is led by NATO, but includes 17 non-NATO countries. There are about 31,000 troops in SFOR. Essential Tasks of SFOR are:
- ensure force protection and deter a resumption of hostilities or new threats to peace;
- control the airspace over Bosnia-Herzegovina and control military traffic over key ground routes;
- monitor the movement and training of Entity Armed Forces (EAF);
- ensure safe conditions for the implementation of the non-military aspects of the Dayton Peace Accords;
- assist the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and other international organizations in their humanitarian missions;
- prevent serious crimes or interference with civilian freedom of movement;
- monitor and support the clearance of minefields by the Bosnians.
