Summary

A student died and approximately 24 others were injured in an explosion during a school hiking trip in northern Israel near the Lebanon border on October 12. Reports indicate the blast involved unexploded ordnance, with some sources suggesting it was a cluster munition. The Israeli military suspects the explosive originated from Hezbollah, though the exact cause remains under investigation. Police are examining circumstances including whether a student placed the device in a bag before detonation. The Education Ministry authorized the trip and maintains the approved route did not enter a prohibited area despite prior warnings from the Jewish National Fund that the area was closed due to war damage; the Ministry denies any authorization breach. Students used tourniquets and CPR to assist injured peers. Authorities are investigating the trip's authorization and whether dangerous explosive remnants remain in areas that have reopened to the public.
