Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, international, regional and national security environment is defined by complexity and dynamism. During the latest two decades, international community has shown a tendency to involve directly in the management of crises and armed conflicts, sometimes resorting to the military instrument to resolute them. Thus, various international military coalitions under UN mandate have formed and acted in the theaters of operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. In Afghanistan, there is a war between UN international military coalition and the Afghan security forces, on the one hand, and the Taliban and insurgent forces, on the other.
