I strongly condemn Monday’s incident that led to the killing of two Indonesian @UNIFIL_ peacekeepers in South Lebanon. A third peacekeeper was severely injured & a fourth was also hurt.
My deepest condolences to the peacekeepers’ families, friends & colleagues & to Indonesia, and wishing a full & fast recovery to the injured peacekeepers.
This is the second fatal incident in 24 hours — following the killing of a peacekeeper in a separate incident on Sunday.
Attacks on peacekeepers are grave violations of international humanitarian law.
They must stop.
No one should ever have to die serving the cause of peace.
