    At what point do UN troops have authority to shoot back?

      I think they can fire back if fired upon. The issue is probably one of escalation where they’re heavily outgunned.

      There was an interview with the mother of one of the Irish contingent on the radio here the other day and she said they sat in their bunker for 26 hours straight.
