Nach dem Abschuss einer israelischen Drohne durch UN-Friedenstruppen tauchen widersprüchliche Berichte auf

No drama. Trumpy will send them another.

“Peacekeepers”

>UNIFIL, however, in a statement Sunday said an Israeli drone had flown over a UNIFIL patrol “in an aggressive manner” and that “peacekeepers applied necessary defensive countermeasures to neutralize” it.

>It said that shortly after that, an Israeli drone dropped a grenade near the peacekeeping mission and an Israeli tank fired toward them. No peacekeepers were wounded.

>The peacekeeping force, known as UNIFIL, was created to oversee the withdrawal of Israeli troops after Israel’s 1978 invasion of southern Lebanon. Its mission was expanded following the monthlong 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah.

>Earlier this year, the U.N. Security Council voted to end UNIFIL’s mandate as of Dec. 31, 2026, at which point the force will have a year to wind down its mission and withdraw its forces and personnel.

Hmm. Who to believe?

A country that has done things exactly like this hundreds and thousands of times before, and has shown zero regrets about fabricating evidence or straight up lying to support its narrative?

Or a peacekeeping force that is accountable to a wider system of governance that contains individuals that could actually be held accountable for their actions?

The Israeli narrative is that UNIFL shot down a drone that was just hovering and looking at them, and Israel responded by…throwing a grenade at the drone crash site, by hand, or something? Which would mean that Israeli ground troops were close enough to UNIFL to either communicate their intent or open fire. This didn’t happen.

Meanwhile, UNIFL claims that after they shot down a drone that was flying aggressively near one of their patrols, a *second Israeli Drone* dropped a grenade near the patrol, and then a tank opened fire. It seems far more likely that Israel was taking pot shots with hardware from a distance, because they have an incredibly bloody history of doing this, constantly, to noncombatants and civilians, in strict defiance of standing agreements.

I didn’t know that UN peacekeepers even had the ability to shoot things down. Does this mean that all this time they could have been shooting down Hezbolla rockets as they were launched into Israeli cities for *years* and just…**chose** not to???

I always assumed they were inept, I never suspected they were malicious too

Can we have some peacekeepers in Ukraine? This will hell with the drones from Ruzzia.

Out of Israel and UN peacekeepers, only one side has a habit of killing the other so I’d take the UN’s word over the IDF’s.
