=== International deployments === Sweden is part of the multinational [[Kosovo Force]] and has a naval force deployed to the gulf of Aden as a part of [[Operation Atalanta]]. Military [[observation|observer]]s from Sweden have been sent to a large number of countries, including [[Georgia (country)|Georgia]], [[Lebanon]], [[Israel]] and [[Sri Lanka]] and Sweden also participates with staff officers to missions in [[Sudan]] and [[Chad]]. Sweden has been one of the Peacekeeping nations of the [[Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission]] that is tasked with overseeing the truce in the [[Korean Demilitarized Zone]] since the Korean war ended in 1953.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.forsvarsmakten.se/en/about/our-mission-in-sweden-and-abroad/current-missions/korea-nnsc/ |title=Korea β NNSC |website=Swedish Armed Forces |access-date=25 February 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160406032909/http://www.forsvarsmakten.se/en/about/our-mission-in-sweden-and-abroad/current-missions/korea-nnsc/ |archive-date=6 April 2016}}</ref> ====Past deployments==== Swedish air and ground forces saw combat during the [[Congo Crisis]], as part of the [[United Nations Operation in the Congo]] force. Nine army battalions were sent in all, and their mission lasted from 1960 to 1964. A battalion and other units were deployed with the NATO-led peacekeeping [[Stabilisation Force in Bosnia and Herzegovina|SFOR]] in [[Bosnia and Herzegovina]] (1996β2000), following the [[Bosnian War]]. NORDBAT 2 has been studied as an example of [[mission command]] on a chaotic battlefield with conflicting national orders. Sweden had military forces deployed in [[Afghanistan]] with the [[NATO]]-led [[International Security Assistance Force]] (2002β2014), and the subsequent [[Resolute Support Mission]] (2015β2021), which ended when all NATO troops were withdrawn after 20 years of action.
