TWO United Nations peacekeepers were shot and injured by Israeli forces today.
The UN Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) reported there had been two attacks. One when “an Israeli Merkava tank fired its weapon towards an observation tower at Unifil’s headquarters in Naqqoura.” Two peacekeepers were not seriously hurt but remain in hospital.
The second attack took place when Israeli soldiers “fired on UN positions in Labbouneh, hitting the entrance to the bunker where peacekeepers were sheltering.”
