UNIFIL: Israeli forces crossed the Blue Line, ‘destroyed’ main base gate

- The United Nations says Israeli tanks burst through the gates of its peacekeeping force base in southern Lebanon after three platoons of Israeli soldiers crossed the Blue Line.
The UN peacekeepers said in a statement at 4:30am (01:30 GMT), two Israeli army Merkava tanks “destroyed” their main gate and “forcibly entered the position” while peacekeepers were asleep.
“The tanks left about 45 minutes later after UNIFIL protested through our liaison mechanism, saying [the Israeli military] presence was putting peacekeepers in danger,” it said.
At 6:40am (03:40 GMT), peacekeepers reported several rounds being fired about 100 metres (328 feet) north of their position in what appeared to be an attack with some sort of chemical agent.
“Despite putting on protective masks, 15 peacekeepers suffered effects including skin irritation and gastrointestinal reactions after the smoke entered the camp. The peacekeepers are receiving treatment.”
The Israeli army must obey its “obligation to ensure the safety and security of UN personnel and property” at the Lebanon border, the force said after the latest attack.
“Breaching and entering a UN position is a further flagrant violation of international law and Security Council resolution 1701,” UNIFIL said in a statement.
Al Jazeera is covering this story from various locations. Dorsa Jabbari brings updates from the Lebanese capital, Beirut, while Nour Odeh, reporting from Amman, covers the Israeli army's stance.

Once again Israel is investigating itself...Good Luck with that one Unifil.
You think that Hamas will investigate themselves.
@@user-kb1rl5qy1k Hamas (VIOLENCE) was created by Mossad, it's 2024 how do you not know that self-admitted fact by now? Wake up sleepy
@@user-kb1rl5qy1k what does Hamas have to do with my statement...This happened in Lebanon Hamas is no were near there.
@@user-kb1rl5qy1kSo you call Hamas the T word but compare them &their methods with a so called democracy? The fact you feel the need to use a T organisation to defend Israel speaks volumes.
Its pathetic ,oh no dont do that .Toothless morons.Useless .
And the US and UK are complicit to this attack.
hezballas is complicit for not protecting the peacekeepers 😅
@@Adriano12358
Not at all Hispollah.
Alone iof has done that !
And: iof/ Israel/ netanyahu must carry
the responsibility.
Yes we r !!😮
Who cares
@@Adriano12358 They’re not firing because Israel are using the peacekeepers as human shields.
Here's a question how do we expect other countries to adhere to the law of the UN and international law when they're witnessing this?
Exactly!
Well... they are not!!! International law has never really existed, and the UN is just hypocritical.
We can't. I know I'm not playing fair if you're cheating.
Maybe if the UN wasn't complicit in the attacks on Israel, they would have more of a reason to object.
The Blue line was meant to keep Hezbollah away from the Israeli border, and instead an entire army was stationed there, under the auspices of the UN forces that were supposed to enforce the demilitarized area...
@SeedlingNL Here is someone that hasn't seen the long list of Israelis violations both UN and international law. And Israel attacking others,, and then saying they are defending themselves. Much like the 67 war was NEVER defensive. Attack on USS LIBERTY waa not a mistake.
Haven't they unalived 100 UN workers already?
300+ over the last decade or so, iirc.
you mean those who were keeping hostages?
@@Mimicry161 Probably, but those were aid workers and other things like that - not peacekeepers like now.
@Adriano12358 the ones you used the hannibal directive on.
The UNRWA workers that were all vetted and approved by Israel you mean? The ones who are there to help sort out the mess zionists create on purpose, those workers? 12 out of 30, 000 were implicated and so the whole mission is deemed "anti Semitic" - israel is desperately trying to frighten everyone but everyone knows they are incompetent soldiers@@Adriano12358

For all you uninformed, UNIFIL is NOT a fighting unit. They are there to report on what's going on from either side!!
I don't think they are bothered about facts
Yet they're sitting around with Hezbollah in the watch tower. Something not adding up
@@rayneary4371 who is "they"? Is not real certainly don't give a darn about facts but they also don't want the world to know what the facts are
@@antmck99 what? What evidence are you citing that HZB is in their watchtowers?
And do you know that Israel military has just found Hezbollah tunnel just few meters away from UNIFIL POST?
So Israel can also be allowed to attack Unifil without consequences?
Yes
Didn't you know, they are "The Chosen" people. They don't have to follow humanity's rules. The IDF is reckless.😢
@@henrygonzalez360 no. Just know they are idiots
They were told multiple times to evacuate because the IDF is moving in to deal with Hezbollah in that very region, including UNDER the very base. If that means busting down a gate to make a clear GTFO NOW message, so be it.
I keep hearing about International law , What is that exactly , does Israel know about it ? LOL !
They signed the Geneva convention in 1954
Isreal know about it ,but think it doesn’t involve themselves,also a U,N,Member but again ignore it .
International law does not apply to Israel. Apparently, the U.N. considers Israel way above the law with how they treat Israel as a whole.
After this war is over, I wouldn't be surprised if the war crimes charges levied against Netanyahu and several others by the ICC aka the Hague, just magically either get dropped or disappear entirely with no explanation. And the evidence ignored or buried deep and treated as baseless.
only hezballs and hummus heard about international law 😅
@@Adriano12358Grow up
The British had a cleaver way of getting the Jews out of Europe….. hey guys we have land for you in the Middle East

now he wants to adress the UN he speaks hebrew
What!!!
Hebrew is a nasty language, for an evil people
He is a war criminal
I wonder how Matt Miller and the state department are going to spin this
Article 42 of the Charter enables the Council to use force to maintain or restore international peace and security if it considers non-military measures to be or to have proven inadequate. As the United Nations does not have any armed forces at its disposal, the Council uses Article 42 to authorize the use of force by a peacekeeping operation, multinational forces or interventions.
They are peacekeeping personnel but they definitely have a right to use force to defend themselves and any civilian that's being put in harms way by aggressors seeking to violate the international law by breaching the UN resolutions. Great point.
Why does this not surprise me of the IDF? It would surprise me more if they did NOT.
They’ve been in violation, my only question is what is the rest of the world going to do about it?🤔
Wow.. they are wreckless and careless.. most moral army hasnt ever been a bigger lie..
WTF is wrong with these people!?! They really think they own the world
Grössenwahh, vielleicht?!
Korrektur: Wahn, GRÖSSENWAHN?
Their torah literally says they are gods and they believe that. They have been brought up with these instructions from the torah for milleneas. We let them get away with that what do we expect? It also says that they possess all the nations, all their belongings and the entire earth.
Yes, they do think they own the whole wide world. 😁
It seems like international law under the United Nations applies to the entire world, except for the United States and its unofficial 51st state, Israel. زي ما قال بهيج
Not sure Iran would try to sned a missile if they too respected the international law
@@excelagadaigho1497 Oh, I totally get it! Iran clearly has no right to defend itself. I mean, who needs to respond when other countries attack their embassies and carry out operations on their soil? Let’s just stand there and take it like champs. Self-defense is for everyone else, but not for them. Brilliant logic, really!
@@Abu-huraira.0 iran and always playing the victim card.... All the terrorist h groups are all sponsored by Iran but you're here talking about iran defending itself.... That sounds pathetic
This is crazy! Eventhough UNIFIL is an observation post to report back to the UN, they have every right to defend themselves. What a waste if they can't hold the line?!? Unbelievable
I asked my self why had the Jews had to flee many times in its loong history. Here is the answer?
The region tries to be nice but there will be no way the region and the majority of the world will acceppt such a aggression.
The region has been trying to eradicate the Jews for millenia... that's not nice...
But now that Israel finally has been unchained, the region is crying they can no longer contain the beast they themselves provoked...
Remember, all of this would not have happened if not for the October 7th genocides against Israelis.
The reason why juice had to flee many times is that they teach every generation from the torax that they possess all the nations, they are entitled to all their belongings and they own the world. A quote "the nation that doesn't serve you will utterly be wasted" this consists of their law. They behave accordingly. And they literally believe they are gods because the torah says so.
The Phone call from Lloyd Austin has had no effect. Lloyd Austin is as paper a tiger as his boss. Shame on the USA.
victim card and lies is all the chosen people can do
At least you recognize Israel as the chosen. Your words will be used in Gods court.

@@antmck99They were not.
Since USA, Britain and others are blocking everything, the UN can't do much.
If you have power and not Muslim , it may seem like you can act without worrying about consequences.
True for any human being regardless of creed
Ofcourse anything is better than PDF file Muhammad followers 🤮🤮
Convenient to say this now
.. but do not quickly forget that... Israel not completely flattening Hezbollah puts them at risk in the future@@abdulmanangloveson
@@excelagadaigho1497Same could be said about your inflammatory statement. Unfortunately for you, history proves you wrong. Hezbollah only exists due to Israeli aggression in that region. Israel's international law violations proves that these resistance groups won't seize to exist because without them, the civilian populations of the region would be at risk of ethnic cleansing and massacres. Historically Israel attacks civilians as its main target and its been proven by international organizations and sources.
Oh my god ! I just don’t understand why and how this evil is being allowed and aided
WOW the IDF never ceases to surprise me, directly attacking the UN and warning the UN telling them to get out, as usual i expect UN to do nothing for the Irish peacekeepers, God bless the Irish for trying their best to protect the Lebanese and the undeniable support they have for Palestine. .
They busted down a gate and told them to GTFO, so the Hezbollah arsenal below their base can be destroyed.
Bibi has lost his mind
UN RELIEF workers are there for safety zones and they have a right to defend themselves against terrorists.
Why not enforce a no-fly zone over Lebanon and stop all this talking..
😅😂🤣
And what airforce will enforce that
Wow! Is this supported by the rules base order? Do they care?
Can we now see through the Hasbara? Is the UN now a human shield for the Lebanese people? Not the fighters?
Talk,talk,talk, statement ,statement,statement , nothing done , U.N. cowards !!!
Another "line crossed." How many lines do they have? For Israel has spoken.
allje.wmus.tdie
Ooooo
Expelling Israel from the United Nations will force the United States and Great Britain to leave the United Nations as well, right?
Many Brits don’t like how Isreal are blowing Schools, hospital’s and homes up as the Innocent civilians didn’t ask for the warfare! There are rules to warfare and countries like Britain follow them
US = UN.
There's no UN without US.
Would that be such a bad thing?
Well ironically Israel is technically not a U.N. member according to rules on membership entry. They were asked several times to go through those requirements by the Brits whenever they asked if they could become a member, and Israeli leadership said, and I quote "We will do all that later" (They never did that later or anything to become a member). This comes from an actual U.N. member from a few weeks ago pointing this out during a meeting. (They had a livestream that I watched) Makes you wonder how it is they even have a seat let alone veto power in the 1st place.
Ty 4 this reporting
The IDF/IOF are out of control and this US of Israel backed war(s) will not end well anywhere 4 anyone!
The risk of WW too high!
UN useless👎👎
you don't know anything about UN😂
Like your moms box then 😂
Yes, but only because USA and Britain are blocking every decision in the security council.
MAGA
It’s because America keeps vetoing every UN attempt to stop Israel
Satan has issued for the world warning
Hostages are of zero importance of Netanyahu, whether Jew of Unifil.
Israel's UN membership must be suspended. If a member doesn't respect the UN law , her membership must be suspended.
The question is; where does Aljazeera get all these analysts who are always on the same side as the news anchor? And what use is it when u have 2 people who should be having a debate just on the same side? 😂
It’s outrageous haha😂
They are not there to debate, they are there to report the facts on the ground

Elon said in 30 years we are moving to Mars, so start saving.
1:13 What are these crazy fascists doing?? Attacking UNIFIL?? No words!!
God Bless the Irish ☘️
Shocking? As if it never happen before
If UNIFIL was doing the job in accordance with 1701. In other words, in forcing the 1701 mandate, there would be no war in southern Lebanon.
Can’t do much when Americans can’t keep the leash on Israel can they?
time for them to return back to Ireland 😅😂
So Isrsel has the right to attack? Make it make sense.
They're there to observe not fight
they just sleep and eat baklava 😅🤣
If the UN pulls out, it becomes more akin to the League of Nations.
Why are they condemning Israel yet Hezbollah is in the area. Rem the fighting is against Hezbollah near the UNIFIL base. What peace are they keeping there in the first place
Bcuz hezbollah lives in southern Lebanon. 😅.UNIFIL prevent land crossing into another country's territory nt to fight Hezbollah, ignorance 😊
So does that mean Israel has the right to give UNFIL commands and attack them?
unifil is in Lebanon ie Hezbolah home, not in Israel. Israel is trying to occupying Lebanon and steal land again
The audacity of that guy!!!
Can anyone tell me about the job of UN peacekeepers
I'm confused what are they doing there if even they can't defend themselves
They are there as peace keepers and observers. They are the eyes and ears of the UN.Yet Israel does not wish for their crimes to be witnessed and documented.
They are not supposed to be there. They should have left since the fight broke out.

WHATABOUTISM CARD - FAKE ZIO ACCOUNT EDITION
The UN only has enough power as member states are willing to give it. The US, among a few other countries have veto power. If the majority wanted to have an armed peacekeeping force except for the US for example, than it would not happen. Powerful countries don't want to be held accountable so they vote against giving military power of any kind to the UN.
They cut the guy off at the end because he's bias and he was starting to let it show. They only wanted to hear his objective opinion. The truth is the truth no bias required.
Peacekeeper,,haha
Someone MUST contain him
Be for he would be boss of the world
What kind of peace UN. Peacekeeping force doing there. ???
To keep Israel from genocide and occupying Lebanon
They explained it in the video. You can also just google Unifil mission
Israeli spokespeople said they would strike UN facilities before they began hostilities against Lebanon (along with hospitals, schools, homes and apartments).
Iran attacked Israel, but no Israeli was killed. However, Israel has the right to defend itself and may attack Iran.
If Israel now attacks the UN and no UN soldier is killed, does the UN also have the right to defend itself and attack Israel?
The charter that establishes the UN peace keeping forces need to be redefined not to collaborate with the existing local army but to duty independently under UN charter that keeps them
There was fighting, only Israel opened fire hence the blame 😂
