Lebanon: A UNIFIL patrol came under fire near Wadi Jilo in southern Lebanon, without peacekeepers.
The patrol was hit this evening by about 12 rounds of fire. After watching the muzzle flashes, the cruiser returned fire, and the man stopped firing. UNIFIL called on the Lebanese government to immediately investigate and hold those responsible accountable, stating that targeted attacks on peacekeepers violate UN Security Council Resolution 1,701 and international humanitarian law.
