U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has urged Israel to ensure the safety of UN peacekeepers in Lebanon amidst rising tensions. His call comes after Israeli forces fired on UN positions, injuring peacekeepers during operations against Hezbollah.
Austin emphasized the need for Israel to pivot from military actions to diplomatic solutions and reiterated the importance of protecting UN forces in the region. This sentiment was echoed by leaders from France, Italy, and Spain, who condemned the attacks and stressed that they violate international humanitarian law.
