Staffan de Mistura, the Personal Representative of Secretary-General Kofi Annan for Southern Lebanon, called on the Israeli authorities to stop the air violations of the so-called Blue Line and Hizbollah to end its "ensuing and dangerous" anti-aircraft fire.

their obligation "to refrain from all violations of the Blue
Line in accordance with the relevant Security Council
resolutions."
