U.N. Peacekeeping Force in Southern Lebanon Will Remain, U.N. Official Says
Briefly

UNIFIL spokesman Andrea Tenenti affirmed the UN peacekeepers will stay on their posts along the Israel-Lebanon border despite recent targeted attacks by the Israeli military.
The role of UNIFIL at the moment is more important than ever, according to Tenenti, emphasizing the need for monitoring and humanitarian coordination amid escalating conflicts.
Tenenti expressed concern over Hezbollah's actions, stating they are endangering peacekeepers by firing rockets near their positions, complicating the already tense situation in the region.
Despite Israeli accusations of being a shield for Hezbollah, all contributing nations and the U.N. Security Council unanimously agreed on the necessity of UNIFIL's presence.
