Shell Explodes in Lebanon, Four Peacekeepers Hurt

Four United Nations observers were wounded on Saturday when a shell exploded near them as they were carrying out a foot patrol in southern Lebanon, the UN peacekeeping mission said, adding it was still investigating the origin of the blast.
The UNIFIL statement said the targeting of peacekeepers is “unacceptable.”
Two security sources had told Reuters the observers were wounded in an Israeli strike, but the Israeli military denied striking in the area.
“Contrary to the reports, the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) did not strike a UNIFIL vehicle in the area of Rmeish this morning,” the military said.
