00:41And our area of operations is quite large. But nonetheless, it does, the 120 kilometers is quite short when you think about it. And we've got five positions in which the Israeli defense forces still remain. And that's a significant concern for us as peacekeepers. And it is a significant concern for the people who live here who want to return to their villages.
