Lebanese media report that the Israeli Navy has detained a fisherman off the coast of Naqoura in southern Lebanon.
Earlier, reports in Lebanon claimed Israeli forces opened fire on civilians attempting to return to the border village of Yaroun.
There is no immediate comment from the IDF on the incidents.
The IDF has warned Lebanese residents against returning to south Lebanon villages amid an ongoing ceasefire.
“Do not move south! The IDF is not interested in hurting you. Do not return to your homes until further notice. Anyone who travels south puts themselves at risk,” Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman, says on X this morning.
