Israel-Lebanon live: UN says peacekeepers injured after Israeli tank fires at watchtower
Israeli forces have "repeatedly hit" UN positions the last 24 hours, including "deliberately" firing at security cameras, UNIFIL says.
Two UN peacekeepers have been injured after an Israeli tank fired towards a watchtower at a UN base in southern Lebanon, the UN says. According to a statement by the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), the observation tower at its headquarters in Naqoura was directly hit, causing the peacekeepers to fall. "The injuries are fortunately, this time, not serious, but they remain in hospital," the UN says. It adds that Israeli soldiers also fired at a UN base in Ras Naqoura, "hitting the entrance to the bunker where peacekeepers were sheltering, and damaging vehicles and a communications system". There's more in their statement which we'll bring you shortly. UNIFIL is a UN peacekeeping mission created in 1978. It monitors hostilities and helps to ensure humanitarian access to civilians.

Politicians of many countries will express their shock and outrage towards the media before turning around and signing even more arms deals with Israel.
America will be like ‘We’ve ask israel (the accused btw) to investigate themselves’ meanwhile israel says ‘yeah right’ and does fuck all for a year and a half while the weapons keep in coming. Finally they admit that they did deliberately target UN peacekeepers, but by that point everyone has forgotten and if you bring it up you’ll be called antisemitic.
The Germans have already stated they have to stand by Israel and will continue to send weapons to them.
It seems the Germans have never stopped being fine with the "right" races doing a little Holocausting on "lesser" races.
