The Irish Prime Minister said he was deeply concerned by the shots fired at UNIFIL. “We cannot accept or condone firing on peacekeepers,” he said.
Israeli firing on UNIFIL is “unacceptable” and represents “very serious hostility” by the Israeli military against UN forces, Irish Foreign Minister Michael Martin condemned on Friday.
International community
And so it is in Israel
To ensure these shots and peacekeepers
“not in danger”
Irish diplomatic chief announced to reporters.
Ireland provides 347 of the 10,000 troops of UNIFIL, the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon.
Lebanon condemned fresh Israeli fire on a peacekeeping position in southern Lebanon on Friday, a day after a diplomatic protest after two Indonesians were wounded in similar shootings.
On Thursday, UNIFIL accused Israeli forces of firing
in its positions.
Michael Martin condemned:
This represents a serious escalation of Israeli military hostility towards UN forces.
“This is totally unacceptable”
He condemned.
Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris said Thursday
Because of these shots against UNIFIL.
“Shooting on peacekeepers cannot and will not be tolerated”
He added.
