United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon to keep operating despite request by Israel to withdraw

โ€”

The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon at Camp Shamrock is to remain operating in the area south of Lebanon despite an official request by the Israeli government to the United Nations to dismantle the camp. The request was refused by Ireland which is leading the operation with us much as 330 troops at Camp Shamrock. The United Nations peace keeping mission is currently operating by guarding civilian and medical convoys and repairing civilian infrastructure. A medical convoy by the Red Cross was targeted recently by the IDF leaving several medics killed.

The Israeli Defence Force is currently bogged down fighting Hezbollah in the southern border of Lebanon with Israel in Yaroun and Maroun Al-Ras. Fighting is ongoing between Hezbollah and the IDF just a couple of kilometres away from Camp Shamrock.

    The Committee to Protect Journalists has said that at least 128 journalists and media workers, all but five of them Palestinian, have been killed – more journalists than have died in the course of any year since it began documenting journalist killings in 1992.

    “All of the killings, except two, were carried out by Israeli forces. CPJ has found that at least five journalists were specifically targeted by Israel for their work and is investigating at least 10 more cases of deliberate targeting. Two Israeli journalists were killed in the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas,” the watchdog said.

      How ma you Israeli citizens have been murdered by Palestinians and hamas terrorists? Or do you have blinkered eyes or biased against the victims namely the Jewish state? No country will ever destroy the state of Israel.
