One Lebanese injured by an Israeli mine

An elderly Lebanese citizen was severely injured in a mine explosion left by Israeli occupation troops before they withdrew from the southern parts of the country more than three years ago, Lebanese security sources said on Friday.

Mohammad Diab Abu Dallah, a 75-year-old man, was wounded in the explosion in Yarin, on the border with Israel. He was taken to a nearby hospital where he underwent an emergency surgery and his left leg was amputated.
