IDF soldier moderately wounded, another lightly hurt by rocket fire in southern Lebanon

An IDF soldier was moderately wounded and another lightly wounded earlier today (Sunday) by rockets fired at troops in southern Lebanon, the military says. Both soldiers were evacuated for hospital treatment and their families notified.

Earlier this evening, the IDF reported that an Israeli soldier was moderately wounded and another lightly wounded after rockets were fired at military positions in southern Lebanon. The injured troops were evacuated to a hospital for medical treatment, and their families have been updated. The incident adds to a pattern of ongoing hostilities on the northern border. As The Zioneer has previously reported (June 7, 09:05; June 11, 15:30), similar attacks involving explosive drones and rockets have wounded reserve soldiers as well as female combat troops in recent weeks. The current report relies on the IDF spokesperson's statement; no further details on the precise location or the origin of the rocket fire have been released.
