A total of 16 Israeli soldiers have been killed and 690 wounded since February 28 in attacks linked to Iran and Lebanon.
Military data show 690 wounded, including 96 seriously and 42 critically, with remaining suffering moderate or minor injuries.
The army added that 149 soldiers remain hospitalized as medical teams continue treating injuries across multiple facilities nationwide.
In the past 24 hours, 37 soldiers were wounded, mostly due to explosive devices, though exact locations were not disclosed.
These figures could not be independently verified because Israel imposes strict restrictions on reporting impacts of Iranian and Hezbollah attacks.
Earlier Sunday, Maariv reported two Israeli soldiers killed and twelve wounded in separate explosive incidents in southern Lebanon’s contested zone.
Israeli media describe the “Yellow Line” as an unofficial boundary extending four to ten kilometres inside southern Lebanon along border.
Maariv said roadside bombs in Lebanon remain a lingering nightmare for soldiers recalling heavy insurgency battles of past decades.
The conflict escalated after a US-Israeli campaign against Iran on February 28 spread into Lebanon in early March.
A two-week ceasefire between Washington and Tehran began April 8, while US President Trump announced separate truce in Lebanon.
