A French soldier got killed and three others wounded in an attack on UN peacekeepers down in southern Lebanon this Saturday morning. The fallen soldier was Staff Sergeant Florian Montorio from the 17th Parachute Engineer Regiment out of Montauvin. President Macron pointed the finger straight at Hezbollah for the hit, calling it out on social media. He stressed that France wants Lebanon's government to grab those behind it, quick and back up the UN mission there, known as UNIFIL. Our thoughts go out to Montorio's family and all the troops holding the line for peace. This stands firm with them as this unfolds.
