Israeli Army Issues Evacuation Orders for Twelve S. Lebanese Villages

(MENAFN) The Israeli army has instructed residents of a dozen villages in southern Lebanon to leave their homes immediately, warning of imminent military action in the area, according to statements attributed to the military spokesperson.

Residents in several named villages were told to evacuate without delay and move a specified distance away from their homes into open areas for safety. The warning indicated that the evacuations were being issued in preparation for forthcoming attacks.

The announcement comes despite an earlier ceasefire arrangement that was extended, with reports continuing to describe ongoing military activity and repeated strikes across southern Lebanon in recent months.

Lebanese authorities have reported significant casualties, widespread displacement, and extensive damage to infrastructure since the escalation of hostilities began earlier in the year. Local figures indicate that large portions of the population in affected areas have been forced to leave their homes.

The situation remains highly volatile, with continued warnings, evacuation orders, and military operations contributing to instability across the border region.
