The deaths of three Indonesian peacekeepers in Lebanon in 24 hours could constitute war crimes, the UN's peacekeeping force in the country has said.

UNIFIL said that two Indonesian peacekeepers on its mission in south Lebanon were killed “when an explosion of unknown origin destroyed their vehicle near Bani Hayyan”.
