Ceasefire Needed: Protect Peacekeepers in Lebanon

The recent incident involving Israeli fire hitting a UN peacekeeping patrol in Lebanon, as reported by the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), is deeply concerning. This event, occurring during a period of relative calm, has resulted in damage to a vehicle, though fortunately, no peacekeepers were injured. The escalating border conflict between Israel and Hezbollah necessitates immediate action. We urge a swift and comprehensive ceasefire, a halt to funding for Israel, and the reinstatement of funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). These measures are crucial to ensure the safety of peacekeepers and the stability of the region.
