Gamla was critically wounded by an explosive drone in Lebanon overnight Thursday. He was evacuated to hospital, where he succumbed to his wounds on Saturday.

Yaari was killed as a result of an accidental discharge; the Military Police Criminal Investigation Division has launched an investigation into the incident.
