The Lebanese Army announced the martyrdom of one of its soldiers following an Israeli strike on a military post in the city of Bint Jbeil, southern Lebanon.

In a statement on Thursday, the Lebanese Army clarified that the soldiers stationed at the post responded to the source of the Israeli fire.

Earlier today, the Lebanese Army reported the martyrdom of one of its soldiers and the injury of another due to an Israeli attack. The incident took place during an evacuation and rescue mission, carried out in coordination with the Lebanese Red Cross, in the town of al-Taybeh, Marjayoun, in South Lebanon.

Hezbollah confronts Israeli forces at Fatima Gate, targets build-ups 

The fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah successfully confronted an attempt by Israeli occupation forces to advance at Fatima Gate in South Lebanon at 10:15 am on Thursday morning, using artillery shells.

Under the "permitted to publish" clause, Israeli media reported the deaths of two additional soldiers from the Sayeret Golani unit, who were killed by an anti-tank missile during confrontations with Hezbollah. The reports also noted that seven other soldiers were seriously injured during the confrontations.

This brings the total number of casualties suffered by the Israeli army since the beginning of their attempted incursion to ten, as they acknowledged on Wednesday the deaths of eight soldiers along the southern Lebanon border, including two captains.

The toll followed a tightly coordinated ambush by the Resistance on Wednesday, involving elite soldiers who attempted to infiltrate the town of Odeisseh from the direction of Khallet al-Mahafer. The ambush came after the Resistance had detected Israeli recon troop movement on Tuesday morning.

This marked the first attempt by Israeli forces to infiltrate southern Lebanon since the Israeli army announced the commencement of a ground invasion in the area overnight Monday.
