IDF accused of attacking UN peacekeepers amid Gaza International Force plans

The UN has accused Israel of attacking peacekeepers in southern Lebanon, alleging an Israeli drone dropped a grenade and a tank fired near UN patrols close to Kfar Kila. The UNIFIL mission reported no injuries but called the incident a “serious violation.” This comes after earlier accusations that Israeli forces repeatedly targeted UN observers near the border. Israel insists the actions were aimed at dispersing Hezbollah fighters. The tensions now raise fresh doubts about plans for an international peace force in Gaza, which could include troops from Pakistan, Indonesia, and Azerbaijan. As Netanyahu warns Israel will decide who enters Gaza, global efforts to stabilize the region face new uncertainty.
