The Israeli army has issued orders to evacuate neighborhoods in southern and eastern Lebanon in anticipation of further bombings, with reports indicating that a quarter of buildings in border towns have been destroyed.
Since clashes erupted on the Lebanon-Israel border following Israel’s offensive in Gaza on October 7, 2023, Tel Aviv has widened the conflict to include extensive airstrikes across Lebanon, including in Beirut, and has advanced ground operations in southern Lebanon.
