Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called for the immediate withdrawal of United Nations peacekeeping forces from southern Lebanon, accusing Hezbollah of using the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) as "human shields." In a statement directed at UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, Netanyahu emphasised the need to evacuate UNIFIL personnel from areas controlled by Hezbollah, arguing that their presence endangers both peacekeepers and Israeli soldiers.
