The resolution reaffirmed the no-fly zone relating to military flights over Bosnia and Herzegovina and welcomed the advance deployment of observers from UNPROFOR and the European Community Monitoring Mission at airfields in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro). It called on all parties concerned and governments to co-operate with the United Nations Force, asking them to direct all requests for authorisations of all flights relating to UNPROFOR and humanitarian assistance to the Protection Force.

The council also reiterated its determination to consider all violations of the no-fly zone, noting it would consider further measures if necessary.[2]
