( as of 1 Dec 2000, check Press Update for latest figures )
Initially 3,110 police officers has been approved for UNMIK. Secretary-General Kofi Annan on 26 October 1999 recommended that the Security Council increase the strength of the UNMIK police force by more than 1,600 officers, after receiving a recommendation from Dr. Kouchner that the force should be significantly increased. Mr. Annan urged the Council to increased the force strength to 4,718 ( including 1100 special police) to ensure that UNMIK had a police service that could enforce and maintain civil order.
As of 1 Dec 2000, UNMIK has 4450 international police and 3135 KPS officers deployed in all five regions of the province and at border crossings.
