The Lebanese Navy ((アラビア語:القوات البحرية اللبنانية) ''Al-qūwātu al-Baḥriyya al-Lubnāniyya'') is the Navy of the Lebanese Armed Forces. It was formed in 1950 and based in Beirut Naval Base, Lebanon’s first naval base. The navy, which currently lacks the proper number of equipment, has a number of approximately 65 vessels of various sizes and roles; however, the navy is trying to modernize itself, and increase its size. The flag of the Lebanese navy depicts a Phoenician ship with the Lebanese Cedar tree, positioned on an anchor above the Arabic inscription of the navy's name. The Lebanese government approved on January 16, 2009 a request by the Lebanese Ministry of Defense to build a new naval base on the shores of Nahr el-Bared Palestinian refugee camp in northern Lebanon. ==The role in marine conservation== Main article: Marine environmental issues in Lebanon In Lebanon, marine conservation, marine pollution response and implementation of the international maritime conventions such as the international convention for the prevention of pollution from ships are the concern of the Lebanese navy, since it is the only state authority that can enforce the maritime law in both Lebanese exclusive economic zone and territorial waters.〔(Missions of the Lebanese navy )〕 For the reason that: * Lebanese navy do not recruit specialized officers with a high diploma in the maritime field. 〔(List of specializations required in the Lebanese armed forces )〕 * The skills of the Lebanese Naval Forces are not incredibly diverse or necessarily advanced to the level of European countries due to their limited human resources and equipment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=GlobalSecurity.org )〕 Lebanese Navy undergoes difficulties in accomplishing its enduring roles in maritime safety, security and marine environment stewardship. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lebanese Navy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
