Sa’ar: Hezbollah Launched 10,000 Attacks Right Under UNIFIL’s Nose

Apr 27, 2026·1 min read

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar met Monday afternoon in Yerushalayim with UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon Jeanine Hennis Plasschaert, pressing for immediate international steps to address Hezbollah’s ongoing operations conducted in close proximity to UN forces stationed in Lebanon.

During the meeting, Sa’ar stressed that Hezbollah has continued to breach the ceasefire in a consistent and deliberate manner, arguing that these actions advance Iranian objectives rather than serving the interests of Lebanon itself.

The foreign minister also presented figures outlining the extent of recent hostilities, noting that since March 2—when Hezbollah entered the conflict under pressure from Tehran—roughly 10,000 missiles, rockets, and drones have been launched toward Israel.

He further pointed out that many of these attacks originated from areas located near UNIFIL positions and installations.

“We are seeing an increasingly dangerous pattern: Hezbollah systematically deploys its terrorists and assets next to UNIFIL stations, taking advantage of UNIFIL’s presence for its hostile actions. Hezbollah is using these positions for surveillance against IDF forces and is moving its terrorists in vehicles identical to those of UNIFIL,” Sa’ar stated. “The Government of Lebanon must act decisively against Hezbollah and its terrorists, including through financial measures targeting its sources of funding.”
