British Play Their Part In UN Peacekeeping Process

The United Nations peacekeeping force in Cyprus (UNFICYP) has been running since 1964, making it one of the UN's longest-running missions of this kind.

For more than 50 years personnel from all around the world have been on the island and today they patrol and monitor the buffer-zone across the country's divide.

As part of the mission's 50th anniversary, Carla Prater has been looking back at its history and how it all began.
