Responding to a question from NNA about the situation along the Blue Line following the assassination of Hamas leader in Beirut on Tuesday, deputy chief of UNIFIL’s Strategic Communications and Public Information Office, Kandice Ardiel, voiced concern over any potential escalation.

‘We are deeply concerned at any potential for escalation that could have devastating consequences for people on both sides of the Blue Line,’ Ardiel said.

‘We continue to implore all parties cease their fire, and any interlocutors with influence to urge restraint,’ she added.
