United Nations Security Council Resolution 761, adopted unanimously on 29 June 1992, after reaffirming Resolutions 713 (1991), 721 (1991), 724 (1991), 727 (1992), 740 (1992) 743 (1992), 749 (1992), 752 (1992), 757 (1992), 758 (1992) and 760 (1992), the Council authorised the Secretary-General to immediately deploy additional elements of the United Nations Protection Force in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Yugoslav Wars.

The Council authorised the deployment to ensure the security and functioning of Sarajevo International Airport to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid, appealing to all sides to co-operate with the Force in the reopening of the airport. It also called on the parties to observe the ceasefire and co-operate with the Force, international organisations and Member States in providing aid.

Resolution 761 increased the Force in Sarajevo to one infantry battalion, while Resolution 764 would increase it to two. The Force would protect the airport since it, and the capital, came under attack from Bosnian Serbs on 5 June 1992.
