00:00Prime Minister Nawaf Salam has condemned the repeated attacks on UNIFIL peacekeepers
00:06and is actually now calling for action.
00:08Who is committing these attacks and what does it mean for the security in southern Lebanon?
00:16Who is committing the attacks?
00:19I wouldn't know any better than the latest dispatches,
00:24but the suspicions are generally directed towards partisans of Hezbollah.
00:31I don't know if it's the case in this instance.
00:35And the UN has not been able to fully accomplish its missions for the longest time, for decades.
00:45And they barely can move without being followed by the Hezbollah,
00:50and they don't normally push very hard.
00:55This is before the Gaza war, but they don't push very hard to get at the weapons caches
01:01because they would suffer fire and intimidation.
01:06So this seems to be in the same vein, but the game has changed
01:11and Hezbollah is not as powerful, not nearly as powerful as it was a year ago.
01:20So this is a year of embarrassment.
01:35Not anything about this zone or maybe if it's forced to incite them to fall into it,
01:39but it's like what there is something across theтерес of this zone.
