The Israeli military “repeatedly” fired at UNIFIL headquarters and positions in southern Lebanon, wounding two members of the peacekeeping force, the United Nations says.
UNIFIL – the UN Interim Force in Lebanon – stated on Thursday that two of its peacekeepers were injured after an Israeli tank “fired its weapon” at a guard tower at the group’s headquarters, located in the border area town of Naqoura.
On Wednesday, Israeli soldiers had “deliberately fired at and disabled” the position’s “monitoring cameras”, it said.
The Israeli military had also “deliberately fired” on a second UN position – named 1-32A – in the border area of Ras Naqoura, where regular meetings had been held before the conflict began, “damaging lighting and a relay station”, said UNIFIL.
