Four Italian soldiers were hurt, none
seriously, after a UNIFIL base in Lebanon was hit by rocket
fires Friday.
The men are not in a life-threatening condition, local sources
said.
The Shama base was hit by two rockets probably launched by
Hezbollah, one of which hit the outside of the bunker, whose
structure did not collapse.
Some of the soldiers were hit by glass and stone fragments and
were slightly injured.
Traces of at least one 122-millimeter rocket, which is not in
service with the Israeli army, were found on site.
An Italian UNIFIL base was recently hit by eight Hezbollah
rockets and five peacekeepers had to go to the infirmary but no
one was seriously hurt.
