Darwin, 15 November –
UN peacekeepers said on Friday that Israeli forces have constructed a wall inside southern Lebanon, near the UN-demarcated Blue Line. The incident occurred nearly a year after the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.
The news was reported by AFP from Beirut.
In October, the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) inspected a “concrete T-wall built by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) southwest of Yaroun.”
The survey confirmed that the wall crosses the Blue Line. As a result, more than 4,000 square meters of Lebanese land has become inaccessible to local residents.
UNIFIL further stated that in November, peacekeepers observed additional T-walls being constructed in the area.
The survey also confirmed that “a portion of the wall built southeast of Yaroun has crossed the Blue Line.” The peacekeeping force has urged Israel to withdraw from the area.
