BEIRUT: Lebanon’s Foreign Ministry filed a complaint with the U.N. Security Council Thursday over Israeli gunfire that wounded a Lebanese soldier near the country’s southern border earlier this month.
The complaint, issued through Lebanon’s permanent representatives to the United Nations, came after Israeli forces fired at a Lebanese Army post in the occupied Shebaa Farms on Oct. 5, wounding one soldier, read a statement released by the Foreign Ministry.
The wounded soldier, identified by a security source as Zakaria Hamza al-Masri, was shot in the hand, prompting Lebanese troops to return fire.
