ROME, Oct. 10 (Xinhua) -- Italy officially protested with Israel on Thursday for targeting the United Nations Interim Force (UNIFIL) deployed in south Lebanon, which hosts UNIFIL headquarters and two Italian bases.
Italy's Defense Minister Guido Crosetto contacted his Israeli counterpart Yoav Gallant to complain, defining the events as "unacceptable to the Italian government". But the minister said none of the 1,068 Italian troops deployed with the mission were injured.
