Fifteen UN peacekeepers were wounded when Israeli forces shot white phosphorus rounds by their base, highlighting the dangers faced by peacekeeping forces in Lebanon.
The report reveals that Israeli forces have attacked UN peacekeepers in Lebanon at least a dozen times recently, with serious implications for international peacekeeping efforts.
Israel's use of white phosphorus, particularly near populated areas, raises serious legal and humanitarian concerns, as this toxic chemical can inflict lasting harm.
Human Rights Watch has urged an immediate UN investigation into these attacks, emphasizing the need for accountability for the violence against UN peacekeepers.
