Two soldiers from the Israeli military sustained serious and moderate injuries last night when a hand grenade exploded during an operational activity in southern Lebanon. Initial investigations suggest the incident occurred around 10 PM near the town of Majdal Zoun, where the soldiers were conducting a search for suspects. The grenade was reportedly thrown as part of the mission, but it is believed to have rolled back towards the soldiers and detonated, injuring them with shrapnel. The soldiers, who belong to the "Givon" battalion and were part of an officers' course, had recently arrived to reinforce troops of the 91st Division in Lebanon. After receiving initial medical treatment at the scene, they were airlifted by helicopter to Rambam Hospital in Haifa for further care. The Israeli military has launched an investigation into the circumstances of the incident, while the Northern Command continues to examine the operational causes.
