The Israeli army on Monday issued what it described as an “urgent warning” to residents of the southern Lebanese towns of Kfar Hatta and Ain al-Tineh, calling on those living in buildings marked in red on maps it circulated, as well as nearby structures, to evacuate immediately.
In a post on X, the Israeli army’s Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee said residents were located near buildings allegedly used by Hezbollah, urging them to move at least 300 meters away. He added that Israeli forces would soon target what he described as military infrastructure belonging to Hezbollah, warning that remaining in the designated areas would put civilians at risk.
According to Adraee, the planned strikes are aimed at countering what he termed Hezbollah’s attempts to rebuild its military capabilities in the two areas.
Earlier on Monday, Adraee issued a similar warning to residents of Anan Al-Manara, stating that Israeli forces would carry out attacks against what he described as military infrastructure linked to Hamas in the area.
Also on Monday, Adraee said the Israeli army had killed two individuals in southern Lebanon whom he identified as Hezbollah operatives involved in reconstructing military infrastructure. He said an Israeli strike on Sunday targeted the Jemjema area, resulting in the deaths.
Adraee claimed that the activities of the two men constituted a “flagrant violation” of understandings between Israel and Lebanon, adding that the Israeli army would continue to act to eliminate what it considers threats and to protect Israel.
