A French soldier who was part of international forces stationed in southern Lebanon was killed, President Emmanuel Macron said on Saturday. 

Macron said that evidence suggested Hezbollah was responsible for the attack.

Three other soldiers were wounded and have been evacuated, Macron said in a post on X, urging the Lebanese government to act against the alleged perpetrators.

The soldiers were part of the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil), a peacekeeping mission in the country’s south.
