Israel: 'Vatican must condemn Hamas in a clear way'

Israel "expects the Vatican to issue a clear and unequivocal condemnation of the murderous terrorist actions of Hamas terrorists who have targeted women, children and the elderly for the sole reason that they are Jews and Israelis. It is inconceivable that concern is expressed in the first place for the citizens of Gaza when Israel buries 1,300 people killed." This was stated by Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen in a telephone conversation with the Secretary for Relations with States of the Holy See, Paul Gallagher.

Military sources, UNIFIL was not the target, rocket from Hezbollah

The rocket that hit the UNIFIL base, according to military sources, was launched by Hezbollah and would have reached a logistical area inside the Naqoura base where there were no soldiers at the time. The same sources point out that the base was not the target of the launch and that the episode would be due to an inaccurate calculation of the trajectory. All the soldiers present in the base took refuge in the bunkers and then left when the alarm had ceased. Among others, about a hundred Italian soldiers operate in the base. At the moment there are no plans to evacuate the base, which can only be decided by the UN.

"Our peacekeepers were not in the bunkers at the time, but fortunately no one was injured," Tenenti said.
