UN peacekeeping

The UN says the almost 50-year mission will come to an end in 2027, as 300 Irish peacekeepers still stationed in south Lebanon.

The UN peacekeeping force in Lebanon has demanded an "immediate" investigation after one of the vehicles was set on fire.

Unifil said two rockets that struck its Shama base were likely launched by Hezbollah or "affiliated groups".

Two Unifil bases were hit by rocket fire and a patrol was shot at, the UN force says, condemning the incidents.

The Taoiseach (Irish PM) Simon Harris said he had been briefed and is "receiving regular updates".

Relations reach a new low with two sides at loggerheads amid the conflict in Lebanon.

It comes as PM Netanyahu demands the peacekeeping force leave the area.
