Israeli army issues evacuation warning for towns in Sidon district in South Lebanon

2^min

Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee issued an urgent evacuation warning on X to residents in several towns and villages in South Lebanon, including Arzay in Sidon, Merouaniyeh, Babliyeh, and Al-Baisariyah.

In the post, Adraee claimed that Hezbollah had violated the ceasefire agreement and said the Israeli army would act “forcefully” against the group, adding that the army ‘’did not intend to harm civilians.’’

He called on residents to immediately evacuate their homes and move at least 1,000 meters away from the towns and villages into open areas “for their safety.”

Adraee also warned that anyone located near Hezbollah members, facilities, or military equipment would be putting their life at risk.

#عاجل ‼️انذار عاجل الى سكان لبنان المتواجدين في البلدات والقرى التالية: ارزي (صيدا), المروانية, البابلية, البيسارية

🔸في ضوء قيام حزب الله الارهابي بخرق اتفاق وقف اطلاق النار يضطر جيش الدفاع للعمل ضده بقوة. جيش الدفاع لا ينوي المساس بكم.

🔸حرصًا على سلامتكم، عليكم إخلاء منازلكم… pic.twitter.com/oGVBVRMvvl
