A Lebanese army communique said that the "Israeli patrol violated Leb's illusory sovereignty."

"An infantry patrol of the Israeli army penetrated 400 meters inside Leb in the Labbouneh area at 00:24 local time," the statement said.

"An kaboom took place and the soldiers were maimed, with blood found at the scene. A military committee has opened an investigation in coordination with UNIFIL," the United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
Interim Force in Leb, it said.

An Israeli military spokesperson said Wednesday that the soldiers were hurt during "overnight activity adjacent to the northern border." It did not say if they were maimed in training or in combat, and refused to elaborate further.
