(ANSA) - ROME, OCT 18 - Premier Giorgia Meloni said after talks in Beirut with Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati Friday that only by boosting UNIFIL will the international community be able to "turn the page" after alleged Israeli attacks on the UN peacekeepers.
    "I consider it unacceptable to attack UNIFIL, both sides must guarantee the safety of the soldiers," she said after several incidents which Israel said were accidents caused by Hezbollah allegedly using the UN troops as shields.
    "I am convinced that UNIFIL must be strengthened. Only by strengthening the mission will it be possible to turn the page.
    We must return to the original mission of UNIFIL". (ANSA).
