One explosive drone detonated near a tank, and minutes later another struck the evacuation vehicle. One soldier suffered serious wounds, two were moderately injured - and two others lightly. All were taken to hospitals

Iran and the United States reached understandings and signed an electronic document. The formal signing ceremony is set for the day after tomorrow in Switzerland and is expected to bring a ceasefire to Lebanon as well, yet fighting continues in the meantime. Five soldiers were wounded this morning (Wednesday) in varying degrees in southern Lebanon after two Hezbollah explosive drones detonated one after another. One soldier is in serious condition, two are moderately wounded and two others sustained light injuries.

The first blast occurred around 6:00 a.m. when a drone exploded near a tank belonging to a Givati combat team in the Tebnit area of southern Lebanon. Shrapnel wounded four soldiers who were airlifted to Rambam Hospital in Haifa for treatment. Minutes later a second explosive drone struck the evacuation vehicle and wounded another soldier. IDF forces responded with artillery fire against terrorist infrastructure in the area.

Meanwhile Iran warned last night that if Israel continues its attacks in southern Lebanon it should expect a harsh response from Tehran military forces. The threat followed a series of IDF strikes in southern Lebanon yesterday that reportedly killed four people. The Iranian statement claimed the Israeli army violated the ceasefire in southern Lebanon 84 times in the past two days, continues to commit crimes and kill oppressed Lebanese people after the U.S. president declared the end of the war.

The IDF does not recognize Iran claim regarding 84 violations yet several strikes were recorded against immediate threats to forces. Troops from Division 36 remain in the Beaufort area and on the ridge clearing underground and surface infrastructure. The soldiers avoid remaining static and continue to operate on the move. It is important to clarify this does not involve seizing new territory but rather ongoing operational activity.

At present forces are not withdrawing from captured areas and continue opening routes for supply lines and vehicle movement. Even before the memorandum of understanding between Iran and the United States the IDF was in the final stages of its operation. Plans and orders were therefore prepared for continued activity ranging from seizing areas around Nabatieh and additional villages to thinning forces and returning toward the yellow line.

Yesterday Al Arabiya and other outlets published the text of the memorandum that was signed - reports the White House denied. According to the first leaked clause Iran and the United States together with their allies in the current war declare with the signing of this memorandum an immediate and permanent end to the war on all fronts including Lebanon and commit from now on not to initiate any hostile action against each other and to refrain from threatening or using force against one another. The final agreement will affirm the provisions of this clause and the remaining sections.

U.S. President Donald Trump referred today to the agreement that was reached and said at the G7 conference alongside Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi that this is an excellent deal for many reasons. The first and by far the most important - 99.9 percent of the matter - is that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. Iran cannot be allowed to possess a nuclear weapon and therefore it will never have one. This is a very strong agreement. No one yet knows exactly what is written in it but it is very strong.
