In this context, the French are understandably worried about the fate of their soldiers – soldiers charged with supporting the Lebanese government in its efforts to establish control over the Hezbollah-controlled south. The terrible French peacekeeping experience in Bosnia in the early 1990s, in which France lost 84 soldiers serving in a humanitarian capacity under restrictive ROEs, justifies their fears.
在这种情况下，法国人对本国士兵命运的担忧也是情有可原—这些士兵的责任是支持黎巴嫩政府在真主党控制的南部建立控制权。1990年代法国在波斯尼亚惨痛的维和经历是他们这种担忧的来源。在这次行动中法国失去了在限制性“交战规则”指导下执行人道主义使命的84名维和士兵。
