Lebanese official media says Israel struck Tyre after the military issued an evacuation call for swaths of the ancient coastal city, already hit earlier in the day.

“Enemy aircraft launched their first strike after the Israeli warning for the city of Tyre and targeted a residential apartment,” the National News Agency says, subsequently reporting “a series of strikes” on the city.

Earlier, the IDF called on civilians to leave large parts of the city ahead of airstrikes targeting Hezbollah.
