Israel-Lebannon conflict: Netanyahu tells UN to remove peacekeepers from danger zone

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

As tensions rise in the conflict between Israel and Lebanon, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned the United Nations that it must remove its forces from the danger zone.

The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) says Israeli tanks “forcibly entered” the position of peacekeepers in Ramyah.

This warning comes after five UN soldiers were injured by Israeli fire.
