Conflicting Accounts Emerge After UN Peacekeepers Shoot Down Israeli Drone
The incident occurred amidst increased Israeli strikes over Lebanon.
In a statement, the Israeli army and the United Nations' peacekeeping mission in southern Lebanon confirmed that peacekeepers shot down an Israeli drone over the weekend, but provided conflicting accounts of the circumstances.
The incident took place as Israeli strikes over Lebanon intensified, following a tense ceasefire that ended Israel's war with Hezbollah last November, and mounting pressure on the Lebanese government to disarm the powerful group.
Israel's latest conflict with Hezbollah began after the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on Israel triggered the war in the Gaza Strip, with Hezbollah firing rockets into Israel in support of Hamas and the Palestinians.
No specific statement was provided by the parties involved regarding the future actions.
