In a devastating incident near the Lebanon border, an explosion caused by likely unexploded ordnance resulted in the death of a teenager and injuries to at least 24 others during a school trip. The blast occurred as students were hiking in the Upper Galilee, with reports indicating that a student had brought the explosive device found nearby. Emergency services responded promptly, treating the wounded, including several critically injured. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the victims and expressed condolences over the tragedy. The area where the explosion took place had previously been marked with warnings prohibiting hiking due to the dangers of unexploded munitions.
