Islamist Nusra Front kidnaps UN peacekeepers on Golan Heights
The al-Arabiya network reported that militants fighting with Jabhat al-Nusra, affiliated with al-Qaeda, kidnapped soldiers of the UN Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) in the Golan Heights. According to reports, those abducted include 40 soldiers of Philippine origin.Meanwhile, Irish forces in the same group are reported to be hunkered down, but safe.
Irish soldiers with #UNDOF on Golan Heights in 'Groundhog' over fierce clashes in their AO. All personnel safe, but it's clearly hairy.

We are all very concerned for the well being of the Irish, a country that compensates for the unfortunate "Curse of the Irish" with its love for the State of Israel.
