The Israeli military identified the soldier as 18-year-old Eitan Zacks from Beersheba, saying he was killed “as a result of a missile launched from Iran”.

An Iranian missile struck Beersheba in southern Israel shortly before the ceasefire came into effect, killing at least four Israelis.

Iran’s attacks on Israel have killed 28 people since fighting began on June 13. Israeli strikes on Iran have killed at least 400 civilians and wounded more than 3,000, according to the Health Ministry.
