France on Tuesday expressed deep concern over an Israeli army drone incident that injured a UN peacekeeper in southern Lebanon, urging Israel to halt its violations of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and to fully respect the ceasefire agreement.

In a statement, the French Foreign Ministry said a grenade, dropped by an Israeli drone near a UNIFIL (UN Interim Force in Lebanon) position in the Kfarkela region on Oct. 11, exploded, injuring an Indonesian peacekeeper.
