Security sources: Israeli regime’s strike wounds UN observers in south Lebanon

 An Israeli strike on Saturday hit a vehicle carrying United Nations technical observers outside the southern Lebanese border town of Rmeish, wounding several observers, two security sources said.

One of the security sources told Reuters that the car carried three U.N. technical observers and one Lebanese translator. That source, and a second security source, said that the Israeli strike had left several of those in the car wounded.

Zionist official, Avichay Adraee denied that Israeli forces hit a vehicle belonging to the U.N. peacekeeping mission in southern Lebanon, UNIFIL.

Israel has been attacking Hezbollah in southern Lebanon for nearly six months in parallel with the Gaza War.

Israel’s shelling of Lebanon has killed nearly 270 Hezbollah forces but has also killed around 50 civilians – including children, medics, and journalists – and hit both UNIFIL and the Lebanese army.

In November, UNIFIL said one of its patrols was hit by Israeli gunfire in southern Lebanon, without leaving casualties.

UNIFIL last month said that the Israeli forces violated international law by firing on a group of clearly identifiable journalists, killing a Reuters journalist.
