Eight Austrian peacekeepers participating in the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) were injured today following rocket attacks stemming likely from Hezbollah or an affiliated group.
Attacks on UN peacekeepers are a violation of international law and are totally unacceptable. The EU reiterates its call to all sides to fully uphold obligations to guarantee the safety and security of UN personnel at all times.
The EU renews its unwavering support to UNIFIL’s role.
