During a routine patrol in southern Lebanon, four UN observers were injured by an explosion that occurred nearby. The Unifil mission reported the incident and stated that they are currently investigating the cause of the explosion. It is critical for the safety and security of United Nations personnel to be guaranteed by all actors in the field, as Unifil emphasized.
Despite some Lebanese media outlets suggesting that Israel was responsible for the attack on the car carrying UN observers, Israel denied any involvement in the explosion. The investigation into the incident continues, and further details are expected to be released as they become available. However, it remains essential to prioritize the well-being and protection of UN personnel carrying out their missions in the region.
