BEIRUT: Senior Lebanese and Israeli military officials met Thursday under the supervision of UNIFIL to discuss blue line violations and Israel's withdrawal from the northern part of Ghajar.
The tripartite meeting takes place regularly in the Naqoura headquarters of U.N. Interim Forces in Lebanon.
Lebanon and Israel are technically in a state of war.
U.N. Security Council Resolution 1701 brought a halt to hostilities between Lebanon and Israel in the summer of 2006, following a month-long war between the two sides. However, Israel continues to occupy northern Ghajar.
Separately, the National News Agency reported Thursday that the Israeli army put up sand barriers and undertook other maintenance work on its monitoring base in the border region of Abbasieh. Four tanks and three armored vehicles were observed on site during the period in which the maintenance was conducted.
