BEIRUT, Dec. 29 (Xinhua) -- The United Nations Interim Forces in Lebanon (UNIFIL) spokesperson Andrea Tenenti said on Saturday that the situation in south Lebanon is calm, the National News Agency reported.
Tenenti said that the UNIFIL forces are operating in coordination with the Lebanese army to maintain stability.
According to Tenenti, the UNIFIL is assessing with the Lebanese army the damages caused by Israel's explosion of the tunnels allegedly dug by Hezbollah in the south, UNIFIL's website reported.
The UNIFIL and the Lebanese Armed Forces investigated the premises of an old concrete factory in the southern part of Kafr Kila after the UNIFIL observed liquefied cement flowing out from the building, the UNIFIL said in a statement.
The statement added that the liquid overflowing on the Lebanese side was injected by the Israel Defense Forces through a shaft drilled on their end of a tunnel, which the UNIFIL previously independently confirmed to be crossing the Blue Line.
On Dec. 4, Israel announced that its army had detected tunnels crossing from Lebanon into northern Israel and the country has started an operation to destroy them.
UNIFIL's technical assessments have further determined that at least two of these tunnels cross the Blue Line and constitute violations of UN Resolution 1701.
