The Nepali Army (NA) has assured that all Nepali peacekeepers deployed in Lebanon under the UN peacekeeping mission-United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL)- are safe.

According to Army spokesperson Gaurav Kumar KC, the NA has been in regular contact with the troops in Lebanon, confirming their well-being. He also said that while sporadic incidents have disrupted daily operations, they have not impacted the safety of the personnel.

“The Nepali peacekeeping forces will continue to follow directives from the UN and mission headquarters based on the evolving situation,” KC added.
