UN peacekeepers will stay in all positions in Lebanon despite Israeli calls for them to move.
UNITED NATIONS – United Nations peacekeepers will stay in all positions in Lebanon despite Israeli calls for them to move amid intensifying fighting between Israel and Hezbollah and five blue helmets suffering injuries, the UN peacekeeping chief said Monday.
Israel has faced severe criticism over injuries and damage sustained by the UN peacekeeping force, which has been deployed in Lebanon since the first of Israel's four major ground offensives against its neighbor in 1978. "I want to emphasize that this decision still remains," he said, adding that the plan was confirmed earlier Monday by Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
The Israeli military later said a tank "backed several meters into a UNIFIL post" while "under fire" and attempting to evacuate injured soldiers.
