BEIRUT/JERUSALEM, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Israeli forces fired on two positions used by U.N. peacekeepers in southern Lebanon on Thursday and at another one on Wednesday, the U.N. force said, as Israel pressed its assault on Hezbollah and told Lebanese civilians not to return to homes in the south.
The UNIFIL force said two of its peacekeepers were injured in one of the incidents, when an Israeli tank fired at an observation tower at the force’s main headquarters in Naqoura, hitting the tower and causing them to fall. There were no casualties in the other two incidents, a U.N. source said.
As a Swiss person I gotta say the story is more complicated and nuanced, but yeah the right leaning coalition that has lead the country for the past couple decades does not favour recognising Palestianian Statehood “at this state in time”. Although one of the major four parties who makes up the coalition does (the second largest party in the country).
Most political intrigue is more complicated than that, in this case though the nuance doesn’t at all change my statement or my point.
