The United Nations peacekeeping force in Lebanon said Saturday it would not leave positions in the south despite what it said was an Israeli request to “relocate”. “On September 30, the IDF (Israeli military) notified UNIFIL of their intention to undertake limited ground incursions into Lebanon. They also requested we relocate from some of our positions,” the UN Interim Force in Lebanon said. “Peacekeepers remain in all positions and the UN flag continues to fly. “We are regularly adjusting our posture and activities, and we have contingency plans ready to activate if necessary,” it added. Israel has intensified its campaign against Lebanese freedom fighters group Hezbollah since September 23, killing more than 1,110 people and forcing hundreds of thousands to flee their homes in a country already mired in economic crisis. Israel said earlier this week that it would start carrying out limited ground incursions into south Lebanon.
