Abstract

After the re-admission of the Republic of Serbia to the United Nations (UN), members of the Ministry of Defence ( MoD) and the Serbian Army Forces (SAF) have been engaged in multinational operations (MNOP). The first engagement of three military observers was in UN MNOP in East Timor (UNMISET) from 26.06.2002. Until the closing of the mission, there were five members of the MoD and SAF engaged. Currently, there are 247 members of the MoD in 10 UN MNOP worldwide, engaged in different roles. During UN multinational operations, one of the key problems is posed when encountering some kind of explosive ordnance (referred to in the article as MES). In order to avoid consequences of improper explosive ordnance handling, full attention has to be paid to prevention, i.e. good preparation, During the preparation of MoD and SAF members to be sent to UN MNOP, the main problems concern professional staff (a small number of qualified and trained instructors) and necessary literature. The paper presents a review of the currently available literature and the experience of the MoD and SAF members who were engaged in UN MNOP in dealing with explosive ordnance, notably mines.
