Israel army says soldier killed in south Lebanon fighting
 Jerusalem, June 1 (AFP) Jun 01, 2026
 The Israeli army announced that one of its soldiers had been killed on Monday in fighting in southern Lebanon, bringing to 26 the number of Israeli military deaths since early March.

Staff Sergeant Adam Tzarfati, 20, "fell in combat in southern Lebanon", the army said in a brief statement.

In total, 26 Israelis have been killed - 25 soldiers and one civilian contractor - since hostilities between Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah resumed on March 2, when the Shiite militant group reopened the front in support of Tehran, following US-Israeli strikes on Iran.
