This live blog has been closedThe U.N. peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon says new explosions hit its headquarters in the southern Lebanese town of Naqoura on Friday morning, injuring two peacekeepers, a day after Israeli forces struck the same position. One of the injured peacekeepers was taken to a hospital in the nearby city of Tyre, while the other was treated at the site. It also said an Israeli army bulldozer hit the perimeter of another of its positions in southern Lebanon while Israeli tanks moved nearby. Additional peacekeepers were sent to reinforce the position, it said. Israel slammed a U.N. probe which concluded it was deliberately seeking to destroy healthcare in the Gaza Strip and abusing Palestinian detainees, branding the findings “outrageous”.
