        "summary": "Indonesia's Foreign Minister Sugiono has demanded security guarantees for UN peacekeepers in Lebanon, emphasising that their role is to maintain peace rather than engage in combat, following the deaths of three Indonesian soldiers in attacks. He urged the United Nations to reevaluate safety procedures for deployments, particularly in the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), and highlighted that Indonesian personnel are not equipped for peacemaking missions. This call comes after Indonesia requested an extraordinary UN Security Council meeting and strongly condemned the incidents, underscoring the nation's commitment to protecting its troops in international peacekeeping efforts.",
