UN Condemns Attack on Ghanaian Troops in Southern Lebanon

The United Nations has strongly condemned the recent attack on Ghanaian troops stationed in Southern Lebanon.

In a statement attributable to the Spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General, the organisation expressed deep concern over the incident, describing the assault as “ferocious” and reaffirming its commitment to the safety of UN peacekeepers.

The statement highlighted the UN’s solidarity with the Ghana Armed Forces, whose personnel were reportedly targeted while serving under the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL). It further called on all parties in the region to exercise restraint and respect international law, particularly the protection of peacekeeping forces.

The Secretary-General reiterated that attacks on UN personnel are unacceptable and stressed the importance of ensuring the safety and security of troops deployed on international peacekeeping missions.

The UN’s condemnation follows reports that Ghanaian soldiers were injured during the attack, prompting urgent calls for an investigation and accountability.
