In 1996, the United Nations continued to support efforts to keep the peace process on track and remained involved in the Middle East in a number of ways—through its peacekeeping operations and the good offices of the Secretary-General, as well as through significantly expanded programmes of economic, social and other forms of assistance. Promising developments, such as the withdrawal of Israeli troops from some West Bank cities, paved the way for the first general Palestinian elections in January. There were some setbacks, as well, including those linked to the delayed redeployment of Israeli troops from the city of Hebron, plans to expand Israeli settlements, seizure of Palestinian land and demolition of Palestinian homes.
