Plain-Language Brief
The authors propose using Large Language Models (LLMs) to help assess threats during foreign peacekeeping missions, specifically referencing their work with the EU Monitoring Mission in Georgia. They combine an interdisciplinary risk model, OSINT-based media collection, and LLM-supported threat extraction. The evaluation of results shows high agreement between automatic and human judgments, suggesting that LLMs could be useful for analysts during peacekeeping missions.
What the Document Says
- The text discusses an approach using Large Language Models (LLMs) for threat assessment in foreign peacekeeping missions.
- It mentions the PINPOINT project and its use case, which is the EU Monitoring Mission in Georgia.
- An interdisciplinary risk-model, OSINT-based media collection, and LLM-supported threat extraction are combined for this approach.
- The text describes a workflow that maps media contents to mission-relevant threats, extracts structured information, and uses additional LLM-based processing steps to improve relevance and grounding.
- The evaluation of threats extracted from media documents shows high agreement between automatically generated results and human judgment for core aspects such as threat and mission relevance.
- The results indicate that LLMs could be a promising approach to support analysts in the context of peacekeeping missions.

Raw Abstract / Excerpt
We present a novel approach for applying Large Language Models (LLMs) to threat assessment in the context of foreign peacekeeping missions. Building on the PINPOINT project and its use case, the EU Monitoring Mission in Georgia, we combine an interdisciplinary risk-model with OSINT-based media collection and LLM-supported threat extraction. The proposed workflow maps media contents to mission-relevant threats, extracts structured information and applies several additional LLM-based processing steps to improve relevance and grounding. An evaluation of threats extracted from media documents shows high agreement between automatically generated results and human judgment for core aspects such as threat and mission relevance. These results indicate that LLMs provide a promising approach to support analysts in the context of peacekeeping missions.
