A soldier was badly injured on Tuesday night in a training accident. The accident took place near the Golani junction, where the troops were practicing their navigation skills. A bullet was accidentaly discharged from one of the soldiers’ guns, badly injuring his fellow soldier.



The soldier who fired had apparently forgotten to replace his live ammunition with blanks, as he was supposed to for the exercise. It is still not clear who fired the shot. An army official will be appointed to investigate the incident.



The injured soldier was transported to the Poriya hospital in Tiberias. He is suffering from a severe wound to his neck.
