Israel warned the residents of 10 villages in southern Lebanon to evacuate their homes immediately to avoid planned air strikes against alleged Hezbollah targets.
“In light of the terrorist Hezbollah’s violation of the ceasefire agreement, the IDF is compelled to act forcefully against it. The IDF does not intend to harm you,” military spokesman Avichay Adraee said.
“For your safety, you must evacuate your homes immediately and move away from the villages and towns by a distance of no less than 1,000 meters into open areas.”
The communities listed by Adraee in a social media post cover a large area of southern Lebanon and lie on both the north and south banks of the Litani River.
Hezbollah and Israel accuse each other daily of violating the truce that came into effect on April 17.
At least ten people, including six rescue workers and a girl, were killed Friday in a series of Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
According to the Israeli military, these strikes targeted Hezbollah fighters travelling by motorcycle and weapons-manufacturing infrastructure.
