peacekeeping troops
International intervention soldiers
Peacekeeping troops are military personnel deployed to maintain peace in conflict zones, typically under international authority such as the United Nations.
They monitor ceasefires, protect civilians, and separate warring factions rather than engage in combat: Peacekeeping troops were stationed along the border.
The term often implies a neutral role—intervening without taking sides.
