This is coming as fighting between Israel and Hezbollah intensifies in Lebanon.
UNIFIL reminded “the IDF and all actors of their obligations to ensure the safety and security of UN personnel and property.”
According to UNIFIL statement:
“This morning, peacekeepers at a position near Kafer Kela observed an IDF Merkava tank firing at their watchtower. Two cameras were destroyed, and the tower was damaged.
Yet again we see direct and apparently deliberate fire on a UNIFIL position.
“We remind the IDF and all actors of their obligations to ensure the safety and security of UN personnel and property and to respect the inviolability of UN premises at all times.”
