Israeli Shelling Kills U.N. Officer Fox News Sun, 09 Jan 2005 9:13 PM PST
BEIRUT, Lebanon : Israeli shelling killed a French member of the United Nations observer force on Sunday, shortly after a Hezbollah bomb attack claimed the life of an Israeli soldier in a day of violence near the border in southern Lebanon, Lebanese and U.N officials said.
A Swedish member of the international truce monitoring force was also wounded in the same attack. The French and Swedish "peacekeepers" worked for the U.N. Observer Group Lebanon, a U.N. agency that monitors the 1948 Armistice Agreement between Lebanon and Israel.
A senior Israeli military investigator told The Associated Press in Jerusalem that the peacekeeper's death "apparently is the result of our tank fire." He also said the peacekeepers were not wearing a U.N. beret.
