Izraelska ofensywa na Bliskim Wschodzie przybiera na sile. Wojska Izraela są zdeterminowane, by zniszczyć Hezbollah bez względu na koszty — a te okazują się coraz wyższe. Organizacja Narodów Zjednoczonych oskarża izraelską armię o "celowe" zniszczenie wieży obserwacyjnej i ogrodzenia na terytorium sił pokojowych w Libanie. Nie jest to pierwszy raz, gdy Izrael uderza w siły pokojowe na Bliskim Wschodzie.

    UNIFIL statement (20 October 2024)

    Earlier today, an IDF bulldozer deliberately demolished an observation tower and perimeter fence of a UN position in Marwahin.

    Yet again, we remind the IDF and all actors of their obligations to ensure the safety and security of UN personnel and property and to respect the inviolability of UN premises at all times. Yet again, we note that breaching a UN position and damaging UN assets is a flagrant violation of international law and Security Council resolution 1701. It also endangers the safety and security of our peacekeepers in violation of international humanitarian law.

    The IDF has repeatedly demanded that UNIFIL vacate its positions along the Blue Line and has deliberately damaged UN positions. Despite the pressure being exerted on the mission and our troop-contributing countries, peacekeepers remain in all positions. We will continue to undertake our mandated tasks to monitor and report.
