What is the ruling on one who masturbated while fasting during the day in Ramadan, after having a wet dream on the night preceding his fast?

Masturbation is forbidden by Islamic law. If it results in ejaculation during a day, it breaks the fast and necessitates making up for that day. If it does not result in ejaculation, it does not break the fast. If the person performing the masturbation with ejaculation was an adult at that time, then making up for the fast is obligatory, along with sincere repentance for intentionally invalidating their fast.
