On 13 May 1993, six soldiers of the Japanese Self Defence Forces (SDF) arrived in Maputo to participate in the UN Operations in Mozambique (ONUMOZ). They were the first contingent of a group of 53 members to be dispatched to Mozambique, and the first military force in Japanese history ever stationed on the African continent. In fact they were the second military force dispatched overseas since the defeat of Japan in the Second World War; since 1992, 1,800 persons have been dispatched to Cambodia to participate in the UN Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC)
