The UN peacekeeping force in Lebanon (Unifil) condemned on Monday Israel's strikes on Lebanese army posts.
"Unifil is seriously concerned by numerous strikes on the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) inside the Lebanese territories, despite their declared non-involvement in the ongoing hostilities between Hezbollah and Israel," Unifil said on X.
Unifil cited the LAF's casualty toll, noting that Israeli strikes have killed 45 Lebanese soldiers.
"[The] LAF’s role remains vital for the full implementation of Resolution 1701 (2006), which is essential to ending the ongoing violence between Hezbollah and Israel," Unfiil said.
