Israeli forces shoot at UN peacekeepers in Lebanon, wounding two - eviltoast

Two UN peacekeepers in Lebanon have been wounded by Israeli fire, the mission said on Thursday, as Israel’s military ground operations in the country continued.

In a statement, the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) said two of its members were wounded after a Merkava tank fired towards an observation tower at Unifil headquarters in Naqoura, “directly hitting it and causing them to fall”.

“[Israeli] soldiers also fired on UN position (UNP) 1-31 in Labbouneh, hitting the entrance to the bunker where peacekeepers were sheltering, and damaging vehicles and a communications system,” said the peacekeeping mission.

“An IDF drone was observed flying inside the UN position up to the bunker entrance.”

Israeli attacks in Lebanon over the past month, including a bombing campaign and ground invasion, have killed over 1,200 people and displaced one million.

    Yeah, you’re right. He’s not worth arguing with. I think I’ll still post the sources to show he’s wrong in case anyone sees his misinformation. I’d rather it not go uncontested. But yeah, no point arguing with him. Any onlookers unsure can check the sources and see for themselves that he’s wrong
