Temporary International Presence in Hebron or TIPH is civilian observer mission in the West Bank city of Hebron. Both the Israeli Government and Palestinian Authority called for its creation. Its main task is to "assist in monitoring and reporting the efforts to maintain normal life in the City of Hebron, thus creating a feeling of security among Palestinians in the City of Hebron." It “monitors the situation in Hebron and records breaches of international humanitarian law, the agreements on Hebron between Israel and the Palestinian authority and human rights, in accordance with internationally recognized standards".〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=May 4, 2010 )〕 It also monitors Israeli settlers, and aims to help the Arab Palestinians who currently live there. It is staffed by personnel from Denmark, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Turkey. == Establishment == The TIPH mission was first established in 1994 after the Cave of the Patriarchs massacre on 25 February 1994, in which 29 Palestinians were killed. On 18 March, the UN Security Council condemned the massacre in United Nations Security Council Resolution 904, and called for a temporary international presence in Hebron. On 31 March, representatives of the Palestinian Liberation Organization and the Israeli government signed an agreement requesting Italy, Denmark and Norway to provide observers to form a Temporary International Presence in the City of Hebron (TIPH). The first TIPH mission operated from 8 May to 8 August 1994. However, the Palestinian Authority and the Israeli government could not reach an agreement on the extension of the mandate, and the observers were therefore withdrawn on 8 August.〔TIPH, (''The Establishment of TIPH'' ). Retrieved 19 December 2013〕 Peace negotiations between the Palestinian Liberation Organization and the Israeli Government resulted in the signing of the Interim Agreement on the West Bank and the Gaza Strip (“Oslo II” or “Taba”) on 28 September 1995. It called for partial redeployment of the Israeli Defense Forces from the West Bank including ''Area H-1'' in Hebron. It also called for the creation of another Temporary International Presence in Hebron.〔Oslo II Accord, (''Annex I: Protocol Concerning Redeployment and Security Arrangements'' ), Article VII, ''Guidelines for Hebron''. Retrieved from the Knesset website on 19 December 2013〕 On 12 May 1996, a temporary second TIPH mission observers started, this time with only Norwegian members. After the IDF's partial redeployment from Hebron, the parties signed the Protocol Concerning the Redeployment in Hebron on 17 January 1997, and four days later The Agreement on the Temporary International Presence in the City of Hebron.〔TIPH, (''Agreement on the Temporary International Presence in the City of Hebron'' ). Retrieved 19 December 2013〕 The third mission, started on 1 February 1997, included observers from Norway,Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland and Turkey.〔 The agreement set a three-month mandate, renewable for a period of three months. Since then the mission has been reinforced with staff from those six countries with Norway as the coordinator. 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「Temporary International Presence in Hebron」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
