UK 'appalled' by reports Israel fired on UN peacekeepers in Lebanon

The UK government on Friday condemned firing by Israeli forces on a United Nations peacekeeper base in Lebanon, urging all parties in the conflict to "comply with international law."

"We were appalled to hear those reports and it is vital that peacekeepers and civilians are protected," a spokeswoman for Prime Minister Keir Starmer told reporters.
