Lebanon: Zionist forces target UN peacekeepers

The Zionist forces retargeted the headquarters of the United Nations peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon, injuring two peacekeepers for the second day in a row.

The U.N. peacekeeping mission in Lebanon raised alarm as the Zionist entity broadened its campaign with waves of heavy airstrikes across the country and a ground invasion at the border.

Ireland’s defence forces chief of staff on Friday criticised the Zionist entity’s attack on the UN peacekeeping mission, calling it “a direct fire.”

“So, from a military perspective, this is not an accidental act; it is a direct act,” Sean Clancy said at RTE News.

In central Beirut, rescue workers combed Friday through the rubble of a collapsed building, searching for survivors of a Zionist airstrike that resulted in the martyrdom of over 22 people and dozens of injuries.

Lebanon’s crisis response unit announced on Friday that 60 people were martyred and 168 wounded in the past 24 hours, raising the total toll over the past year to 2,229 martyrs and 10,380 wounded, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.
