The IDF has issued evacuation orders for 19 Hezbollah sites in Beirut’s southern suburb and the Beqaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, ahead of airstrikes.

Earlier, the military warned that it would target “many” Hezbollah banks and other finance-related sites used by the terror group tonight.

Col. Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman, publishes maps alongside the announcements, which call on civilians to distance themselves at least 500 meters from the sites.
