The Golani Brigade's Chief of Staff, Yoav Yarom, has requested to resign from his position after sustaining injuries in south Lebanon battles with Hezbollah, and following an incident during which an Israeli researcher and another soldier were killed in a Lebanese village.

Erlich's entry into southern Lebanon had not been authorized by the Israeli military command and the wounded senior officer was under investigation for accompanying the researcher into the site.
