The IDF says it has received reports about damage to a UNIFIL outpost and injuries to two peacekeepers.

“A short time ago, a report was received of damage to the UNIFIL outpost in the A-Nakura area,” the IDF tells The Times of Israel. “According to the report, as a result of the damage to the outpost, two UNIFIL personnel were injured. The incident is being investigated and its details are being examined.”

A UN source said Israeli forces fired at an observation post belonging to the UNIFIL peacekeeping force.

The report comes after two peacekeepers were injured in a similar incident a day prior.
