The United Nations peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon confirms that its headquarters in Naqoura was hit by explosions for the second time in 48 hours, a day after Israeli forces struck the same position.
Two peacekeepers from the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) were injured after two explosions occurred close to an observation tower, the UN mission said in a statement on Friday.
Jeez man, return fire already.

Israeli forces are a hostile combatant and should be treated as such.
Hezbollah condemning attacks on the UN, that’s a new one for me. Israel is creating alliances that have never before existed.
I mean, they’re committing warcrimes to do it…which fucking sucks.
It’s not exactly 90’s Al Qaeda out there. Hizb’Allah is a political party with seats in the Lebanese parliament and their own parallel civil society institutions like clinics. Decades in governance, plenty of reaching across aisles and cooperation with other faiths in Lebanon and such. They’ve tended to be sensitive about how they are perceived.
Naquora is tiny. 4,150 people, with a highest elevation of 60m. From what I can tell, the UN HQ is separate from the main village, in a former toll station and a couple buildings on a skinny beach strip that is two streets wide. The IDF really has to be going out of their way to attack UN troops, which is insane if Israel’s goal is to create a regional war where the US bails them out.
Israel has shown they can do whatever they want without consequences. How do I get that kind of freedom??
Just have an extremely powerful PAC in the US during an election year.
Money. A lot of money.
In Texas we call that a declaration of war.
More war crimes? What a surprise.
