- On Wednesday, Master Sgt. Alexander Filin, 29, of Haifa, was killed by an explosive device while operating with the 36th Division near the Litani River at approximately 5 p.m.
- Seven other soldiers were wounded in the blast, including the 36th Division's deputy commander and a 556th Transport Brigade battalion commander who sustained moderate injuries.
- Following the explosion, the IDF targeted Hezbollah infrastructure in the area with artillery fire, as an initial military inquiry attributed the blast to an enemy explosive device.
- Earlier on Wednesday, Hezbollah FPV drones wounded five soldiers from the Givati Brigade combat team near Tebnit, with one severely wounded and others moderately or lightly hurt.
