The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) reported on Saturday that a peacekeeper was wounded by unknown gunfire in southern Lebanon near the Israeli border, marking the fifth such incident in just two days.
The injured peacekeeper, stationed at UNIFIL's headquarters in Naqura, was struck during ongoing military activities in the area. Officials have yet to determine the source of the gunfire. Despite the alarming increase in attacks, the peacekeeper remains in stable condition.
UNIFIL continues its mission to maintain peace and security in the region, navigating the complexities of the volatile environment along the Israeli-Lebanese border. The recent surge in violence highlights the challenges faced by international peacekeeping forces in ensuring stability.
