Two separate sources have confirmed that the explosion injuring UNIFIL personnel in Lebanon was caused by a Hezbollah explosive device, rather than an Israeli air strike as alleged by some.

AFP reported today (Wednesday) that a Lebanese judicial official told them the explosion was due to a Hezbollah land mine.

The IDF Spokesperson in Arabic similarly stated that based on all the information they have, the explosion was due to a Hezbollah bomb:
