Spain summons Israel envoy after Spanish UN soldier briefly held in Lebanon

MADRID: Spain summoned Israel’s top representative to Madrid on Wednesday after the Israeli military briefly arrested a Spanish soldier from the UN peacekeeping force in Lebanon, foreign ministry sources said.
Israel’s charge d’affaires was summoned “to protest the unjustifiable detention of a Spanish UNIFIL soldier by the Israeli army,” the sources said.
UNIFIL on Tuesday said Israeli forces had held one of its peacekeepers “after blocking a logistics convoy,” without revealing the nationality.
The soldier “was released in less than an hour.”
