Israel warned the residents of 10 villages in southern Lebanon to evacuate their homes immediately to avoid planned air strikes against alleged Hezbollah targets.
"In light of the terrorist Hezbollah's violation of the ceasefire agreement, the army is compelled to act forcefully against it. The army does not intend to harm you," Israeli military spokesman Avichay Adraee said.
"For your safety, you must evacuate your homes immediately and move away from the villages and towns by a distance of no less than 1,000 meters into open areas."
