Israeli Military Orders Evacuation of 16 Towns in Southern Lebanon
The Israeli military issued an urgent evacuation order for residents of 16 towns and villages in southern Lebanon, directing them to move northward toward the city of Sidon. The order was issued amid continued cross-border fire with Hezbollah, despite a temporary ceasefire. The warning signaled an imminent attack and included the town of Tebnine, home to the only operational hospital in the immediate area, which was reportedly bombed shortly after the order.
