A rocket attack injured eight Austrian soldiers with a UN peacekeeping contingent in southern Lebanon, the Austrian defence ministry said, condemning the attack and adding it was “currently not possible to say where the attack came from”, AFP reports.

“Eight Austrian army soldiers from the Unifil contingent (United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon) were injured today at 12:58 pm (1058 GMT) by a rocket hit in Camp Naqoura; none of them seriously,” the statement said, adding the injuries were “minor and superficial”.
