Eight Austrian soldiers belonging to the UN peace-keeping force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) sustained slight and superficial injuries in a rocket strike on Camp Naqoura near the Israeli border, Austria's Defence Ministry said on Tuesday.
"We condemn this attack in the strongest possible terms and demand that it be investigated immediately," the ministry said in a statement, adding that it was not clear where the attack came from and none of the soldiers needed urgent medical care.
The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) said on Tuesday that a rocket that hit its headquarters in Naqoura was fired from the north, likely by Lebanon’s militant group Hezbollah or an affiliated group.
