Israeli Gunboats Violate Lebanese Waters

W300

Israeli military vessels violated Lebanon's territorial waters off Ras al-Naqoura, the Lebanese Army Orientation Directorate said in a statement on Monday.

“On Monday at 4:23 am an Israeli military boat violated Lebanon's territorial waters opposite al-Naqoura crossing 260 meters into Lebanon's waters where it stayed for two minutes,” said the statement.

Another violation was recorded at “5:23 am when a military boat violated the same location sailing to a distance of 275 meters for a period of six minutes,” it added.

The army coordinated with the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) in the wake of the incident, the statement said.

Israeli troops regularly violate Lebanon's maritime and land borders crossing the electronic border fence and sometimes enter Lebanese territory through the U.N.-demarcated Blue Line, which was drawn up following Israel’s withdrawal from south Lebanon in 2000 after a 22-year occupation.
