Lebanon arrests 25 after attack on UN peacekeepers

Lebanese authorities have arrested more than 25 suspects following an attack on a United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon convoy that left two peacekeepers injured, including the mission's outgoing deputy commander.
The attack occurred as Hezbollah supporters blocked the main road to Beirut's Rafic Hariri International Airport for a second consecutive night, protesting Lebanon's decision to bar two Iranian planes from landing in the country.
Lebanese Interior Minister Ahmad al-Hajjar confirmed the arrests following an emergency security meeting, stating that while the detainees may not be directly responsible for the attack, investigations will determine the perpetrators.
