An explosive device that damaged a Lebanese Army vehicle in Southern Lebanon on Saturday was likely placed by Hezbollah, according to the Israel Defense Forces.
One Lebanese soldier was killed and two others wounded in the blast near Al-Mansouri, in a security zone where Israeli troops have not recently operated, the IDF said.
The military stated the Lebanese Army vehicle entered the area without prior coordination, as required under existing mechanisms. The IDF urged civilians and forces to avoid entering areas where Hezbollah remains active and to coordinate movements in advance.
