UK ‘appalled’ by reports of Israeli forces firing on UNIFIL base in Lebanon

The UK government condemns the alleged firing by Israeli forces on a United Nations peacekeeper base in Lebanon, urging all parties in the conflict to “comply with international law.”

“We were appalled to hear those reports and it is vital that peacekeepers and civilians are protected,” a spokeswoman for Prime Minister Keir Starmer tells reporters.

The IDF has said that it is investigating the report.
