U.N. Condemns Israeli Killing of Spanish Peacekeeper in Lebanon 
----------------------------------------------------------------


 
At the United Nations, Chilean Ambassador Cristián Barros, who is
serving as president of the U.N. Security Council, condemned the killing
of a U.N. peacekeeper.

Cristián Barros: "The members of the Security Council condemned, in the
strongest terms, the death of a UNIFIL (United Nations Interim Force in
Lebanon) Spanish peacekeeper, which occurred in the context of fire
exchanged along the blue line. The members of the Security Council
expressed their deepest sympathy to the family of the fallen peacekeeper
and to the government of Spain."
