The UN Security Council has condemned the recent killing of a French peacekeeper in Lebanon, whose death France has blamed on Hezbollah, AFP reports.
The Frenchman was killed and three others wounded when their unit was ambushed on Saturday as it headed to a UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) outpost cut off from the fighting between Hezbollah and Israel.
“The members of the Security Council condemned in the strongest terms the attack…(and) reaffirmed their full support for UNIFIL,” a statement from the UN body said.
