UN peacekeepers in Lebanon say adjusting to 'new situation' after truce
The U.N. peacekeeping force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) welcomed the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah on Wednesday, saying it had begun adjusting operations to the "new situation".
"We will continue performing our mandated tasks, and we have already begun adjusting our operations to the new situation," UNIFIL said in a statement, adding that peacekeepers "stand ready to support Lebanon and Israel in this new phase".
"We will cooperate with all relevant partners to make the cessation of hostilities work," it said.
