Israel’s military warned residents of three villages north of the Litani River in southern Lebanon to evacuate on Friday ahead of expected attacks against Hezbollah, AFP reports.
“For your safety, you must evacuate your homes immediately and move away from the villages and towns by at least 1,000 metres into open areas. Anyone who is near Hezbollah operatives, their facilities, or their weapons endangers their life!” the army’s Arabic-language spokesman Avichay Adraee posted on X.
Hezbollah chief Naim Qassem has rejected a conditional truce announced by Lebanese and Israeli envoys, demanding a comprehensive ceasefire and full Israeli withdrawal instead.
