Before further attacks, Israel once again called on thousands of Lebanese in the south of the country to flee their communities. It’s a matter of life and death, said a military spokesman.
The Israeli army has warned residents of 37 other towns in southern Lebanon of planned attacks and called on them to flee immediately. “For your safety, you must immediately evacuate your homes” and head north, an Israeli military spokesman wrote in Arabic on the X platform. “Save their lives,” the spokesman added emphatically.
Anyone who stays near Hezbollah members, facilities and weapons is putting their life in danger, the spokesman emphasized. It is to be expected that any house that Hezbollah uses for military purposes will be attacked.
The places mentioned by the speaker are almost all south of the Litani River. The Israelis want to push back the Hezbollah militia behind this river, which flows from east to west about 30 kilometers north of the de facto Israeli-Lebanese border. The aim is to restore security in northern Israel so that around 60,000 evacuated citizens can return home. A UN resolution also stipulates that Hezbollah should withdraw behind the Litani River.
