IDF orders evacuation of 12 southern Lebanon towns ahead of strikes on Hezbollah
Israeli military warns residents to move at least one kilometer away, citing renewed ceasefire violations and imminent air raids targeting Hezbollah positions
Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have reiterated evacuation orders for 12 villages and towns in southern Lebanon, warning residents to move at least one kilometer away ahead of planned airstrikes targeting Hezbollah positions.
The directive affects residents of Toura, Nabatiyeh at-Tahta, Habboush, al-Bazouriyah, Tayr Debba, Kfar Houneh, Ain Qana, Libbaya, Jibshit, ash-Shehabiyah, Burj al-Shamali, and Houmine al-Faouqa.
According to the Israeli military, the evacuation is being issued in anticipation of strikes against what it describes as Hezbollah infrastructure and activity in the area.
Warning issued to civilians
IDF spokesperson Colonel Avichay Adraee urged civilians to immediately distance themselves from sites linked to Hezbollah, including militants, facilities, and equipment, stating that proximity to such locations “puts their lives at risk.”
The warning was accompanied by claims of continued violations of the ceasefire framework by Hezbollah, which Israel cites as justification for renewed military action.
Rising tensions in southern Lebanon
The evacuation order comes amid sustained tensions along the Israel–Lebanon border, where exchanges of fire and cross-border operations have repeatedly raised concerns over escalation.
While the IDF frames the current measures as preventive ahead of targeted strikes, the scope and timing of the planned operations have not been publicly detailed.
At present, no further operational confirmation has been issued regarding the scale of the forthcoming air raids.
