Israeli Troops Drop Grenades Near UNIFIL Peacekeepers South Lebanon
The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) reported that Israeli Defense Forces dropped grenades near their peacekeepers and Lebanese soldiers in the southern Lebanese village of Maroun al-Ras while they were overseeing rubble clearance of homes destroyed in recent conflict. The incidents involved explosions occurring about 500 meters and as close as 20 to 40 meters from peacekeepers, with drones reportedly dropping grenades near their positions. UNIFIL condemned these actions as serious violations of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and called on the Israeli military to immediately cease such attacks to ensure the safety of UN personnel, Lebanese soldiers, and civilians. Despite the attacks, no injuries were reported, and work continued after demands to stop the firing. The Irish Defense Forces confirmed the safety of their personnel involved, emphasizing ongoing protective measures and commitment to their peacekeeping roles. The Israeli military has yet to provide a formal response but acknowledged reviewing the reports.
