“The rocket was fired from north of UNIFIL’s headquarters, likely by Hizbullah or an affiliated group. We have opened an investigation into the incident.


“We remind Hizbullah and all actors of their obligations to ensure the safety and security of UN personnel and property. Any deliberate attack on them is a grave violation of international humanitarian law and of Resolution 1701.”
