The shell apparently hit the pillar, which brought the thundering fuse of the sabotage system to operation, resulting in an explosion • In the north, Hezbollah launched between four and six drones, most of which were intercepted. One of them fell at the command base and caused very minor damage


A preliminary investigation into the incident that killed the six engineers in al-Bureij yesterday indicates that the explosion occurred while the area was ready to destroy the tunnel route. Most of the forces left the area, and those who remained were the engineers who prepared the area for the explosion itself.

At this point, one of the tanks in the area identified a threat, improved its position so as not to endanger the forces, and fired at the target after receiving permission to do so. During the second firing of the tank, the shell most likely hit the pillar, which caused the thundering fuse of the sabotage system to operate, resulting in an explosion. The unplanned explosion occurred about half an hour ahead of schedule, in the final stages of preparing the area. The IDF explains that additional examinations are currently being conducted by professionals to understand the incident, and it is still being investigated.

As for today's exceptional events in the Northern Command, it can now be said that several UAVs were fired today at the Northern Command base in Safed. Hezbollah is estimated to have launched between four and six drones, most of which were intercepted. One of them fell at the command base and caused very minor damage, with no casualties. The possibility that another vessel fell but did not explode is being investigated. In response, the IDF eliminated the squad that was firing the vehicles with additional drones ready to be launched, as well as other Hezbollah targets. According to foreign reports, the IDF also eliminated those who commanded the operation, and thus it is estimated that Hezbollah's drone system was significantly damaged.
