United Nations Security Council resolution 1300, adopted unanimously on 31 May 2000, after considering a report by the Secretary-General Kofi Annan regarding the United Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF), the Council extended its mandate for a further six months until 30 November 2000.[1]

The resolution called upon the parties concerned to immediately implement Resolution 338 (1973) and requested that the Secretary-General submit a report on the situation at the end of that period.

The Secretary-General's report pursuant to the previous resolution on UNDOF said that the situation between Israel and Syria had remained calm with no serious incidents though the situation in the Middle East as a whole remained dangerous until a settlement could be reached. The Force had co-operated with the International Committee of the Red Cross with mail facilities and safe passage for persons through the separation zone; minefields in the zone continued to be a concern.[2]
