UNIFIL says peacekeepers injured in unspecified 'incident' in Lebanon

United Nations peacekeepers were injured in an unspecified incident near the Lebanese Israeli border, according to a spokesperson on Monday. The incident took place close to the town of Bani Hayyan in southern Lebanon.

The spokesperson confirmed that there were injuries among the peacekeepers but did not provide details about the nature of the incident. The development follows the death of an Indonesian peacekeeper a day earlier, who was killed by a projectile of unknown origin that struck a United Nations position in the area.

Tensions remain high along the border region, where peacekeeping forces are stationed to help monitor and maintain stability between Lebanon and Israel.
