The Kingdom of Bahrain has strongly condemned the attack on a convoy of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) near Rafic Hariri International Airport in Beirut, labeling it as a flagrant violation of international law.

In an official statement, the Bahraini Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed its firm denunciation of the violent assault and reaffirmed Bahrain’s unwavering solidarity with Lebanon. The Ministry stressed the need for immediate measures to ensure the country’s security and stability and called for a full investigation to hold the perpetrators accountable.

Bahrain also reiterated its deep appreciation for the UNIFIL forces, acknowledging their noble efforts in maintaining peace and stability in Lebanon. The Kingdom emphasized the importance of international support for peacekeeping missions and the need to protect personnel working under the UN’s mandate.

The attack on UNIFIL has raised concerns over the security situation in Lebanon, with calls from the international community to ensure the safety of peacekeeping forces operating in the region. UNIFIL has been present in Lebanon since 1978, working to maintain peace and prevent conflict along the country’s southern border.

Bahrain reaffirmed its commitment to supporting stability and security in the region, urging all parties to adhere to international norms and respect the vital role played by UN peacekeeping forces.
