The Security Council was concerned that the objectives of the Security Council were not met and the agreement between the parties on 7 May 1995 was violated, especially on the withdrawal of troops from the separation zones.[clarification needed] Compliance with the ceasefire and withdrawal from these areas was important for the implementation of the mandate of UNCRO. Respect for human rights was emphasised, particularly in the region of western Slavonia (Sector West).
Earlier statements by the President of the Security Council on the Croatian offensive in the western Slavonia—the Operation Flash—in violation of a ceasefire agreement signed on 29 March 1994. It was satisfied with steps taken to meet requirements in the statements, but demanded the withdrawal of all troops from the separation zones. The authority of UNCRO was stressed in addition to respect for its security and safety.[1]
