Several people, including children, were injured in an explosion near the community of Yiftah in northern Israel. Initial assessments indicate the explosion may have been caused by unexploded ordnance previously fired by Hezbollah in attacks targeting Israeli civilians. Police officers and bomb disposal experts are operating at the scene to secure the area and investigate the circumstances of the incident. The public is urged to stay away from the scene and report any unexploded ordnance or suspicious objects to the police emergency hotline at 100
