The peacekeeper just woke up from sleep..after one year of war..

[gabrielinbuon]

What a joke this Un Necessary organization!

[Nash]

If UN could act properly we could have peace.

[ishmaelsunday]

Peace keepers should withdraw from from Lebanon

[nundpelladoah]

What were the UN peace keepers doing when Hizbollah was digging tunnels in Lebanon? Where were their observation cameras?

[ayayialognon]

Frankly speaking, what peace are they keeping? They should go home, there is nothing to do on the ground.

[JosephHoggang-bkbk]

The UN peace keepers should be relocated to a peaceful place since they cannot enforce peace in the area.

[chuckmcormick]

8:44 " Israel seems to be going after the United Nations now", oh please. You mean the Peacekeepers that WERE TOLD to evacuate the area because they really haven't been doing their job? Those peacekeepers? The UN has outlived its usefulness so take it easy. THANK YOU Israel.

[junusrohy]

If UN Peace Keeper force doing its mandate in the first place, Israel won’t be in Lebanon at all. Keep the Hisbollah away from harming Israel population

[lanre]

Palki. They are staying... To do ???? What they didn't do since 2006? What are Peacekeepers doing in a combat zone?

[SwampieMusic]

Lets remind people of one of their roles.
Peacekeeping activities: Peacekeepers can participate in activities such as disarmament, demobilization, landmine removal, and protecting human rights.
So, lets think.. Have they disarmed Hezbollah? Have they stop Hezbollah re-establishing ground south of the Litani River? Have they protected the rights of the Isralis to live without rockets fired at them daily? Tax payers from countries paid them to do all this.. The whole of the UN is antisemetic and these tax funded supposed peacekeepers have done the opposite of what they were tasked. They side with Hezbollah.

[interested]

Unifil was advised to evacuate the area before by Israel. The UN should not be telling UNIFIL to stay in a war zone during a battle.

[joeaghimien]

What is the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon doing there? The UN passed Resolution 1701, the reason for the deployment of the UNIFIL. Since then Hezbollah has not been restricted to the Litani river. So what is the UN force doing there? To merely receive allowances for doing nothing?
Let them get the hell out of Lebanon to avoid unnecessary clashes with the IDF.

[osamudiamwenrapheal]

Senseless UN who drastically turn away from Right to wrong doing

[wlitvack]

'peace keepers'? where have they been keeping it? Why are they even there?

[JamahManh]

Un peace keepers brought no peace, 😮😮 in 20 years so whats their use in Lebanon 😢😢

[JojoPoquita]

abolished UN peacekeepers how come Hezbollah build tunnel near UN headquarters in lebanon

[clarabrawa]

UN where were you from the start. You failed miserably .

[t.s.saravanan.]

What UN peace keepers doing in an active war zone...?? Protectung the terrorists or causing one more hurdle for IDF to carry our free and unhindered operation...

[francisgomes]

Excellent reporting but we seem to have forgotten about the Israeli hostages who are still in the hands of the terrorists .
