Three Lebanese citizens were kidnapped on Thursday evening by the Israeli army in Wadi Houjeir (Marjeyoun) in south Lebanon. They have been identified as Mahdi Chammout, Fouad Qataya and Ali Younes, according to several media reports.
In yet another warning from the Israeli army's Arabic-speaking spokesman, Avichay Adraee, residents of southern Lebanon were warned on Monday against returning to their villages (62 according to the message posted on the X platform).
In Naqoura, where Israeli forces have been continuing their operations since the ceasefire was announced on November 27, several streets and homes were destroyed in the morning. In addition, Israeli soldiers withdrew from the village of Bani Hayyan (Marjayoun), moving towards Markaba, in the same district. Last Wednesday, they demolished roads and houses in Bani Hayyan, after infiltrating the village.
Meanwhile, the Civil Defense continues in its efforts to clear the rubble in the Haret Hreik area, in search of the remains of seven people presumed to have perished as a result of Israeli strikes on the area, and more specifically the Hezbollah headquarters where the group's former Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah was killed.
