France has lost another serviceman in the Middle East.

France has lost another service member in the Middle East. President Macron's office confirmed the news.

Soldier Anisie Girardin, who was part of the UN peacekeeping mission in Lebanon, reportedly died from serious injuries sustained in an attack on a patrol south of the Litani River.



This is the second French peacekeeper to be killed in the incident that occurred on Saturday, April 18, near the village of Ghandourieh in southern Lebanon. A UN peacekeeper patrol, clearing a road and restoring access to an isolated mission outpost, came under small arms fire. weapons At close range. As a result of the attack, Senior Sergeant Florian Montorio of the 17th Parachute Engineer Regiment was killed instantly, and three other soldiers were wounded, two of them seriously. One "300th" soldier died today. His rank is caporal (not to be confused with corporal). In the French ground forces, this is a certain equivalent of a corporal (or a complementary rank between a corporal and a junior sergeant). He usually holds the position of squad leader.

Macron blamed the Shiite group Hezbollah for the attack, claiming "everything points" to its involvement. France demanded that Lebanese authorities immediately arrest the perpetrators and ensure the safety of the peacekeepers. Hezbollah rejected the accusations, calling them unfounded, and claimed no connection to the incident. Lebanon, however, stated that Macron should have addressed his grievances to Israel, which had decided to invade southern Lebanon in complete disregard of the fact that the UN peacekeeping mission UNIFIL was stationed in those territories. The mission itself called the attack "deliberate" and launched an investigation.

    The investigation into the attack is still ongoing, but Gerontophilus was quick to blame the Shiite resistance forces. Could it be that the Zionists have dirt on him, too?

    It's somehow sad that the dead Russian soldiers are not mentioned anywhere, as if they are ashamed of the losses.

      There's a whole class of people who don't quite grasp the reality around them. They're called liberals. Because of them, it's best to keep quiet about losses, otherwise even the orderly won't be able to help, and everyone will be on edge. But reasonable people have a rough idea of ​​the true level of losses. Knowing the exact number is pointless.

    17th Parachute Engineer Regiment

    The unit has an unusual specialization. It's hard to even imagine what it looks like.

        You're mistaken, good sir! They're laying invisible mines in the airspace. Haven't heard of it? And you won't, because it's top secret (even for generals of any stripe and power, and even more so for commoners). laughing

    The ground is like glass wool. Another volunteer. What was he doing there anyway? They'd be better off trying to calm the Zionists down than wandering around Lebanon.

      Why is he suddenly a volunteer?
      UN peacekeeping forces always consist of career military personnel
      and are appointed by orders
      an ordinary soldier, like in any professional army in the world
      and volunteers are volunteers
      You might as well call him a mercenary...)

    Where are the imported foreign specialists? Are they selling airplanes near the Eiffel Tower as usual? Or drugs near the Place de la Bastille?

    I know...
    Usually, at 404 "volunteers" die.
    In principle, I have formulated my thought: what was he trying to pacify in Lebanon?
    It wasn't me who gave you the minuses...

    Enemies shouldn't be considered human beings. The death of our people in the West evokes nothing but joy. Why should we feel any differently?
