UNIFIL: ‘Israel’ Deliberately Attacked our Forces, White Phosphorus Used

Al-Manar – October 18, 2024

UNIFIL spokesperson Andrea Tenenti said on Friday that the Israeli army has repeatedly and deliberately attacked the UN peacekeepers in south Lebanon.

In remarks carried by Lebanese media, the UN mission spokesman said that the Israeli army targeted the UNIFIL forces five times deliberately.

Meanwhile, he noted that the Israeli occupation army has used phosphorus munitions.

“We found evidence of possible use of white phosphorus several months ago near one of our posts” in south Lebanon.

He added that the destruction inflicted upon the Lebanese border town due to Israeli bombardment was “shocking.”

However, Tenenti underlined the need for the international forces to stay in Lebanon, stressing that their morale is high.

Asked about the possibility of resorting to self-defense against the Israeli occupation army, the spokesman said: “It can be resorted to, but the priority now is for de-escalation.”

The Israeli occupation army has repeatedly attacked UNIFIL posts recently, with several times causing casualties among the international force members.

The latest attack was in the border southern town of Kfar Kila on Thursday, when and Israeli Merkava fired at a UNIFIL watchtower.

  1. “UNIFIL spokesperson Andrea Tenenti said on Friday that the Israeli army has repeatedly and deliberately attacked the UN peacekeepers in south Lebanon.” Of course, no surprise there: that’s the Colonial Zionists’ routinely sadistic, vindictively centered modus operandi. It’s — Colonial Zionism — the devilspawn.
