The IDF issues an “urgent” evacuation warning for residents of the southern Lebanon village of Mansouri, ahead of planned strikes on Hezbollah.
“In light of the Hezbollah terror organization’s violation of the ceasefire agreement, the IDF is compelled to operate against it with force,” says Lt. Col. Ella Waweya, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokeswoman.
No details are immediately provided by the IDF on the Hezbollah violation of the ceasefire.
She instructs residents of Mansouri to evacuate at least 1 kilometer north of the village.
“Anyone located near Hezbollah operatives, facilities, or weapons is putting their life at risk!” she adds.
