The Israeli military has called on residents of a central Beirut neighbourhood to evacuate, warning of an imminent attack on the Lebanese capital targeting Hezbollah, AFP reports.
In a statement on social media, the military’s Arabic-language spokesman Avichay Adraee issued “an urgent warning to residents of … Bashoura neighbourhood”, saying Israeli forces would operate against a Hezbollah facility there.
A map posted alongside the statement showed a building in Bashoura, telling residents to stay at least 300 metres from it “for your safety”.
