United Nations Security Council resolution 1605, adopted unanimously on 17 June 2005, after considering a report by the Secretary-General Kofi Annan regarding the United Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF), the Council extended its mandate for a further six months until 31 December 2005.[1]
The resolution called upon the parties concerned to immediately implement Resolution 338 (1973) and requested that the secretary-General submit a report on the situation at the end of that period.
The secretary-general's report pursuant to the previous resolution on UNDOF said that the situation between Israel and Syria had remained generally quiet, though the situation in the Middle East as a whole remained dangerous until a settlement could be reached.[2]
The council also welcomed efforts by UNDOF to implement the zero-tolerance sexual exploitation policy.
