UN peacekeepers report ‘unacceptable’ confrontation with south Lebanon locals
2025-05-17
UNIFIL actually has limits — who knew?? Though this kind of thing used to happen regularly before the IDF came across the border, and UNIFIL didn’t say boo! as far as I’m aware.
[IsraelTimes] United Nations peacekeepers report an “unacceptable” confrontation with locals in south Lebanon and called on Lebanese authorities to ensure their freedom of movement “without threats.”

A spokesperson for the UN Interim Forces in Lebanon (UNIFIL) says that troops were confronted by a “large group of individuals” during a routine patrol, calling the incident “unacceptable” and calling on Lebanon to “ensure that UNIFIL peacekeepers can carry out their mandated tasks without threats or obstruction.”
