In April 2013 a request was received from the United Nations to deploy additional UN Military Observers to the United Nations Truce Supervision Organisation in the Middle East to the Headquarters of the United Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) in Syria. This request is currently receiving consideration and a decision is expected shortly. In response to a separate request from the United Nations to deploy personnel to the headquarters of UNDOF in Syria, three personnel are expected to deploy to the mission shortly. A fourth member of the Permanent Defence Force will deploy to the mission in the coming weeks.
