The IDF issues evacuation warnings for seven villages and towns in southern Lebanon ahead of airstrikes targeting the Hezbollah terror group.
Residents of Ansariyeh, Kharayeb, Chabriha, Sarafand, Aadloun, and Baisariyeh are instructed to head north of the Zahrani River. Earlier, the IDF issued a similar warning for the village of Ain Qana, instructing residents to evacuate at least a kilometer away.
“In light of the Hezbollah terror organization’s violations of the ceasefire agreement, the IDF is forced to act against it with force and does not intend to harm you,” warns army spokesman Col. Avichay Adraee.
