The IDF is calling on civilians near four buildings in Baalbek in northeastern Lebanon to evacuate ahead of airstrikes targeting Hezbollah.
Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman, publishes maps alongside the announcement, which call on civilians to distance themselves at least 500 meters from the sites within the next four hours.
“You are located near Hezbollah facilities and assets, against which the IDF will operate in the near future,” Adraee says.
