Lebanon: Wounded Soldiers had Penetrated Border - Defense/Security - News - Israel National News
Four IDF soldiers suffered light to moderate injuries Tuesday night, when an explosion occurred near the northern border, the IDF Spokesman's Unit said Wednesday morning.
The four soldiers wounded were located 400 meters inside Lebanese territory when the blast occurred, Lebanon's army said on Wednesday.
"An infantry patrol of the Israeli enemy penetrated 400 meters inside Lebanon in the Labouneh area at 00:24 local time, the army said in a statement.
"An explosion took place and the soldiers were wounded, with blood found at the scene. A military committee has opened an investigation in coordination with UNIFIL, " the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, it said.
The IDF Spokesman's Unit said that the explosion took place in the course of activity that took place tonight on the northern border. The soldiers were taken to hospital for treatment.
"The IDF is inquiring into the event, it is following developments, and it will continue to act in order to maintain security along the northern border, the Spokesman's Unit added.
It was not clear from the statement whether the explosion took place along the border with Lebanon or along the border with Syria.
.................
Lebanon is saying these soldiers crossed into their territory but I highly doubt the Lebanese army is behind this. Maybe Hezbollah or Palestinian militants.
Well, that tells us, maybe you shouldn't cross into someone's territory or it would be considered a hostile act. Just as israel considers any actions into their territory hostile.
