The IDF announced that nine soldiers were wounded in two separate clashes with Hezbollah in south Lebanon during the Day 28-29 overnight period. In the first incident (Day 28), two officers were wounded by anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) fire during an engagement with Hezbollah operatives — one seriously and one moderately. In the second incident (overnight into Day 29), an officer was seriously wounded and six troops were moderately hurt when rocket fire struck during south Lebanon operations. All wounded were evacuated to hospitals and their families notified. The IDF maintains a five-division presence in south Lebanon with the 98th Division preparing operations. Hezbollah's ATGM capability has proved effective against IDF armored formations throughout the south Lebanon campaign; 770+ Hezbollah fighters have been confirmed killed by the IDF, but the group continues to inflict consistent IDF casualties through ambush and fire.
