The IDF is investigating a fatal explosion in the Upper Galilee that killed a 16-year-old student and injured 19 others. Initial findings at the blast site on Mount Ramim suggest the incident was caused by a Hezbollah cluster bomb that had remained in the area. The IDF, police, and engineering forces are continuing to search the vicinity to ensure no further unexploded ordnance poses a risk.
The tragedy occurred earlier on Monday during a field trip for students and teachers from the "Orot Ma'alot" religious high school. According to the preliminary investigation, one student placed the ordnance into his personal bag. The item then exploded while the group was near the road.
Following the incident, the IDF declared a mass casualty event. Rescue forces, ambulances, Unit 669 combat medics, and helicopters transported the injured to Ziv Hospital in Safed, Poriya Hospital in Tiberias, and Rambam Hospital in Haifa. The IDF emphasized that the investigation is ongoing and thorough.
