Israel Denies Friction with UN Peacekeepers in Lebanon
[Deutsche-Presse Agentur] Israel denied its forces in southern Lebanon had been involved in a confrontation with UN peacekeepers Thursday. According to Lebanese reports, four French tanks stood 50 meters from five Israeli tanks near the village of Marwaheen in a 20-minute face-off. The Israeli military spokesman said "our forces did not prevent them from doing anything and they did not prevent us from doing anything," adding that "no conflict arose" between the Israeli force and the French force.
