Israeli military claims Hezbollah has launched 25 rockets from near peacekeeper posts
The Israeli military has posted a video on X reportedly showing a Hezbollah weapons cache near a UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) base.
The text accompanying the video claimed Hezbollah has launched “25 rockets and missiles” at Israeli communities and soldiers from “terrorist compounds embedded near UNIFIL posts” over the past month.
It said it found “weapons were stored inside underground compounds located from a few dozen meters to up to a few hundred meters from UNIFIL posts situated near the Blue Line” in southern Lebanon in violation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701.
Beyond the video, it did not provide any evidence for the claims.
Israeli forces have been responsible for several attacks on UNIFIL forces in southern Lebanon, injuring at least five peacekeepers since Thursday. The attacks have drawn widespread international condemnation, including from the US.
Here we go again. UNIFIL is there to inspect the area and observe. They would know from their daily patrols. Yet Israel is trying to claim UNIFIL is turning a blind eye to Hezbollah?
EU alarmed by Israeli attacks on UN mission in Lebanon
The European Union has condemned Israeli attacks on UN peacekeepers stationed in southern Lebanon.
It expressed “particularly grave concern regarding the attacks” by the Israeli military against the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), which wounded several peacekeepers.
“Such attacks against UN peacekeepers constitute a grave violation of international law and are totally unacceptable,” a statement said. “We urgently await explanations and a thorough investigation from the Israeli authorities about the attacks against UNIFIL, which plays a fundamental role in the stability of south Lebanon.”
The EU also expressed concern for Hezbollah’s “continued launch of rockets into Israel” and Israeli raids on densely populated areas of Lebanon, “causing a heavy toll on civilians and the displacement of many”.
Ten rockets launched from Lebanon on Haifa: Israeli army
The military says most of the projectiles launched towards the coastal city in northern Israel were intercepted. One dropped in an open area, an army statement said, adding there were no reports of casualties.
Lebanon’s Hezbollah group confirmed the attack in a statement on its Telegram channel. Hezbollah has intensified its cross-border attacks after the Israeli army’s ground incursion into southern Lebanon.
