Informal arrangements have helped stave off these scenarios, even through war, but they may be unsustainable.

  <description>&lt;p style="text-align:justify;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:&amp;quot;Georgia&amp;quot;,serif;" lang="EN-GB"&gt;The mandate for the UN peacekeeping mission in Lebanon is up for renewal at the end of August.
