Israel’s army calls on residents of Beirut’s southern suburbs, a Hezbollah bastion, to evacuate ahead of military operations targeting the Lebanese terror group “in the near future.”
The military’s Arabic-language spokesman Avichay Adraee posts on social media platform X a map showing specific buildings in south Beirut, saying: “You must evacuate these buildings and those adjacent to them immediately and stay away from them at a distance of no less than 500 meters (0.3 miles).”
Meanwhile, Lebanon’s health ministry says two separate Israeli strikes hours earlier killed at least 10 people in the country’s south and northeast as Israel pummels targets in its fight against Hezbollah.
The ministry says five people were killed and 10 others wounded in the northeastern Hermel region near the Syrian border, and five more killed and 21 wounded in the southern city of Nabatiyeh, which has endured Israeli attacks for days. The figures don’t differentiate between civilians and combatants.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
