Irish soldiers, who are serving as peacekeepers in southern Lebanon, have come under fire while on a joint patrol with the Lebanese Armed Forces, the Tánaiste (Irish deputy prime minister) has said.

The incident happened near the Blue Line in South Lebanon.

A number of small arm rounds were fired in the vicinity of the area in which the patrol was operating, the Irish Defence Force said.

There were no reported injuries and no damage to the armoured vehicles they were operating from.

Interesting fact: The people behind this initiative are all censored from the public.

Big drama in Ireland lately, players are refusing to wear skorts, with many wanting to simply wear shorts. 100% with them on this, it's a ridiculous rule and should be resisted. In the end shorts won.

Anyone else got some 'fun' smaller local European news?

"The material posted is dangerous disinformation, without any real basis or concrete evidence. It is a clear example of manipulation by spreading conspiracy theories that instil distrust in state institutions, international partners and the democratic process," the defence ministry added.

The three ministries claimed that they had found a direct link between the video and Moscow but gave no further details at this time.
