Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

I want to deal with the concerns raised by the head of the UNIFIL mission and force commander Major General Aroldo Lázaro about the security situation in south Lebanon. The Tánaiste has already spoken about how none of us want to see an escalation of anything in the Lebanon on the basis of the slaughter happening in Gaza. He spoke about peacekeeping being the most noble act of all, but we must ensure we have best practice in protocols, operations and equipment for our troops.
