Israeli military forces opened fire on United Nations peacekeepers in southern Lebanon on Sunday, in an incident the UN peacekeeping mission described as a serious violation.
None of the UN forces were reported wounded.
Israeli soldiers had opened fire on two suspects in the El Hamames area near the Israeli border, only later realising that they were UN peacekeepers, the military said in a statement.
The military said it had not intended to shoot at the peacekeepers and that its forces had mistaken them for "suspects" due to "poor weather conditions" and fired warning shots.
