IDF Reservist Seriously Wounded in Southern Lebanon Blast

The IDF said a reserve soldier was seriously wounded Monday afternoon by an explosion during Commando Brigade activity in southern Lebanon and was evacuated to a hospital, with his family notified. The incident took place near Kfar Arnoun at about 1:30 p.m., and the cause of the blast remains under investigation, with suspicion of an explosive device. The incident underscores why Israel must keep pressure on Hezbollah's battlefield infrastructure until northern communities are secure.
