The slain soldiers are named as:
Maj. (res.) Nael Fwarsy, 43, a logistics company commander in the 300th “Baram” Regional Brigade’s 299th Battalion, from Maghar.
Sgt. Tomer Keren, 20, of the Golani Brigade’s 51st Battalion, from Haifa.
Fwarsy was killed and another soldier was lightly wounded after an explosive-laden drone launched by Hezbollah struck an area outside Ya’ara in the Western Galilee.
