At the United Nations, Chilean Ambassador Cristián Barros, who is serving as president of the U.N. Security Council, condemned the killing of a U.N. peacekeeper.

Cristián Barros: “The members of the Security Council condemned, in the strongest terms, the death of a UNIFIL (United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon) Spanish peacekeeper, which occurred in the context of fire exchanged along the blue line. The members of the Security Council expressed their deepest sympathy to the family of the fallen peacekeeper and to the government of Spain.”
