UNIFIL: Peacekeepers Targeted in the South Were Taken Off-Guard
UNIFIL spokesperson in Lebanon Andrea Tenenti revealed that "the peacekeepers who were wounded in the shelling (in South Lebanon) had no warning and were taken off-guard," noting that "currently, there is no direct information available" to determine the source of the fire or make accusations.

"We are investigating the origin of the fire," he said.

Speaking to Saudi daily Asharq Al-Awsat, Tenenti said that despite one individual sustaining severe injuries, all the wounded were in a stable condition.


Tenenti noted that the local Lebanese translator and the two observers have received treatment and have been discharged from the hospital.

A UNIFIL vehicle was hit on the outskirts of Rmeish on Saturday, injuring three military observers and one civilian. One Australian, one Norwegian and one Chilean were in the vehicle, as well as the Lebanese translator.
