Three Israeli soldiers were injured Friday, when a bomb exploded on the road they were patrolling in the eastern sector of the southern Lebanon security zone.

One of the soldiers sustained moderate wounds. The others were slightly wounded, an Israel Defense Force spokesman said. They were evacuated by helicopter to Rambam Hospital in Haifa.

Two soldiers of the Israeli-backed South Lebanon Army were wounded by a roadside bomb in the same sector of the security zone Thursday. No group has claimed credit for either bombing.
