The IDF said two reservists were killed and four seriously wounded when an explosive device detonated in a building in Majdal Zoun that paratroopers had entered to demolish what it called Hezbollah infrastructure, the Times of Israel reported. An initial IDF probe did not establish when the device was planted or how it was set off. Ynet reported these were the first IDF deaths since the June ceasefire took effect. The IDF called the blast a blatant violation of the ceasefire.
