Israeli army claims: UN peacekeepers in Lebanon 'not a target'

The Israeli army claimed Wednesday that it was not targeting U.N. peacekeepers in Lebanon after UNIFIL forces reported being fired at in the latest in a series of incidents.

"UNIFIL infrastructure sites and forces are not a target," the Israeli army said in a statement.

UNIFIL earlier said Israeli army forces had fired at one of its positions in south Lebanon.
