France blames Hezbollah for French peacekeeper's death in Lebanon
Three of his brothers-in-arms are wounded and have been evacuated. The Nation bows with respect and extends its support to the families of our soldiers and to all our military personnel engaged for peace in Lebanon. Everything suggests that responsibility for this attack lies with Hezbollah. France demands that the Lebanese authorities immediately arrest the perpetrators and take their responsibilities alongside UNIFIL.
