The Lebanese Prime Minister, Najib Mikati, contacted the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, to express his solidarity regarding the attack on Unifil forces, in which four Italian soldiers were injured. This was reported by the Lebanese state news agency NNA.

“I would like to express my deep solidarity with Italy and hope for a speedy recovery of the injured soldiers. What happened is unacceptable.
