i24 News – Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officials informed i24NEWS that a terrorist squad was fully equipped in tactical gear attempting to cross from Lebanon into Israel, and were eliminated overnight after being identified.
“The terrorists came with full gear in order to carry out an attack in Israeli territory,” the IDF officials said, adding that the incident occurred at Har Dov near a military outpost in northern Israel.
“We still don’t know what organization the terrorists belong to,” the IDF officials told i24NEWS, adding that it was still not known if a later missile attack on Kfar Yuval was connected to one at Har Dov.
“During the incident five IDF soldiers were injured, two moderately and an additional three lightly. The injured soldiers were evacuated to a hospital to receive medical treatment,” the military said in an official statement.
Hezbollah later claimed responsibility for six launches toward Israel, including the anti-tank missile fire that hit a residential home at Kfar Yuval.
The man killed in the Kfar Yuval missile attack was identified as Barak Ayalon, 48, who served as a member of the Kfar Yuval civilian emergency response team. His mother was identified as Mira Ayalon, age 76.
