We are actually standing in a military base of Hezbollah very close to the UN,
They were prepared for attacking us and (launching) a large invasion into the north of Israel,
We found several days ago a huge quantity of weapons originally coming from Iran and Russia. Brand new,
Many European members are participating in this mission,
No, they will not withdraw. Yes, they will continue to fulfill the mandate. And yes, we demand on each and every party to respect this mandate and respect the security and safety of our blue helmets,
I think the whole world is outraged that Israel is targeting U.N. facilities. They are there on a peacekeeping mission to try and keep the peace on that border,
The 27 (EU) members agreed on asking (the) Israelis to stop attacking UNIFIL,

We should be against Israeli attacks against UNIFIL. Our soldiers are there, many soldiers are there,
Such attacks against UN peacekeepers constitute a grave violation of international law and are totally unacceptable. These attacks must stop immediately,

This environment has allowed the successful resupply of food and water to UNP 2-45. Clashes between both parties to the conflict persist in both the Irish and wider Unifil area of operations. Irish peacekeepers continue to monitor and report any violations of UNSCR 1701 by all parties involved, maintaining an independent and impartial stance,
This deliberate targeting and abuse of civilians must stop. Civilian populations are protected under international humanitarian law. Targeting them shows flagrant disregard for international law and all human rights norms and is a war crime,
UNIFIL peacekeepers remain in all positions and the UN flag continues to fly
The Secretary-General reiterates that UNIFIL personnel and its premises must never be targeted. Attacks against peacekeepers are in breach of international law, including international humanitarian law. They may constitute a war crime,
This action underscores the United States’ ironclad commitment to the defence of Israel, and to defend Americans in Israel, from any further ballistic missile attacks by Iran,
