Israel called for the evacuation of 22 Lebanese villages.

An IDF representative in Arabic addressed residents of southern Lebanon with a demand to immediately leave 22 settlements and evacuate to the center of the country. This applies to villages and towns along the Nabatean-South Lebanon border, including both border and remote communities.

The IDF warns that movement south for Lebanese residents is dangerous and prohibited. Therefore, they are asking to go north, beyond the line of the Avali River, much closer to Beirut than to the Israeli border.

The entire south of Lebanon has been declared a war zone, and residents urgently need to evacuate from dangerous areas.
