The ‘Israeli’ military announced Thursday that a soldier was killed, and seven others wounded, by a Hezbollah “explosive device” in southern Lebanon.

He is identified as Master Sgt. (res.) Alexander Filin, 29, a soldier with the 36th Division’s headquarters.

According to a probe by the military cited by Hebrew media, the group of soldiers, including the deputy commander of the 36th Division, were walking alongside the Litani River when the Hezbollah explosive device detonated.

The deputy division commander, with the rank of colonel; a battalion commander in the 556th Transport Regiment, a reservist officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel; and another reservist were moderately injured.

Four other soldiers were lightly injured in the explosion.
