The military confirms that soldiers have fired warning shots at people trying to approach several southern Lebanon villages, after Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered “forceful action” to keep Hezbollah members from returning.
Several suspects were hit by IDF fire in Meiss al-Jabal, according to the military, which says it has shifted from active fighting in Lebanon to focusing on enforcing the ceasefire deal.
The military says it is working to prevent people from reaching areas where troops are still positioned in southern Lebanon, and several routes to villages have been blocked.
Israeli Air Force planes are still patrolling the skies, and troops are still at positions in southern Lebanon.
The IDF has 60 days to withdraw under the deal. During that time, the Lebanese Army will gradually take responsibility for southern Lebanon and an American-led committee will be established to adjudicate complaints regarding potential ceasefire violations, the IDF says.
