Israel-Hezbollah fighting preventing UN patrols

United Nations peacekeepers from the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, Unifil, are no longer able to move in southern Lebanon as a result of fighting between Hezbollah and Israel, the UN said. 

“Our UNIFIL Blue Helmets remain in position in the mission’s area of responsibility, while the intensity of fighting is preventing their movements and ability to undertake their mandated tasks,” Stephane Dujarric, spokesman for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, told a media briefing.

“Given the intensity of the rockets going back and forth, they are not able to do patrolling".
