On December 26, a missile attack injured nine IDF soldiers in northern Israel while evacuating a civilian hurt in a prior Hezbollah strike on a church. Despite claiming to target an IDF position, Hezbollah hit a depopulated Palestinian Christian village. As troops aided the injured civilian, additional missiles injured the soldiers. Ongoing Hezbollah attacks in northern Israel coincide with IDF actions against Hamas in Gaza. The IDF accused Hezbollah of exploiting Lebanese civilians and holy sites for terrorism. Artillery responses targeted launch sites, and a soldier injured earlier succumbed to injuries. Identified as Staff Sgt. Daniel Nachmani, he was a casualty of the December 22 rocket attack, along with Sgt. Amit Hod Ziv. Hezbollah-led forces have daily attacked Israeli areas and military posts along the border since October 7, citing support for Gaza amid the conflict.
