UNTSO: International Investigation Computers are Still in Our Possession

The head of the United Nations Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) office in Beirut Richard Hauser stated on Thursday that the transportation of 97 computers by the United Nations International Independent Investigation Commission (UNIIIC) to Israel from Naqoura in southern Lebanon is a normal procedure adopted by the U.N.

His statements came as a response to Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah’s reveal of a UNTSO document stating that the computers belong to the UNIIIC and they were in fact moved to Israel.

Hauser added that the computer hard disks were destroyed and replaced with new ones, saying that the computers are still in their possession.

These procedures are adopted when equipment is transferred from on U.N. mission to the other, he explained.

The operation took place with complete transparency and an agreement over the procedures was reached a long time ago, he noted.
