The military chief of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) Claudio Graziano met on Tuesday with senior officials from both the Lebanese and the Israeli armies, a UN spokesperson said.
The meeting was hosted by Maj.-Gen. Claudio Graziano, force commander of UNIFIL, at the UN Position at the border crossing at Ras Al Naqoura, UN spokesperson Michele Montas told reporters at the UN Headquarters.
They discussed recent violations of the Blue Line between Lebanon and Israel, the marking of the line and the temporary security arrangements for a key border village, Montas said.
She said the force commander was encouraged with the general approach of the two sides and their determination to adhere to the relevant provisions of the Security Council resolution that ended last year's war between Israel and Hezbollah.
Tuesday's discussion focused on how to carry out the provisions of that resolution, especially concerning violations of the Blue Line, with a view to preventing further incidents.
They also looked at the security arrangements for the northern part of the village of Ghajar, the spokesperson added.
