Israel Strikes Lebanon and Orders Village Evacuations

Israel has struck Lebanon and issued evacuation orders for four villages in the eastern and southern parts of the country. According to an Israeli military spokesperson, the strikes target “military infrastructure” of Hezbollah and Hamas in the villages of Hamara and Ain el-Tineh in the Bekaa Valley, as well as Kfar Hatta and Anan in the south. The spokesperson warned residents not to remain in the areas, as they are putting their lives at risk. This escalation comes amid a period of heightened tension between Israel and Hezbollah, with concerns about a potential wider conflict. The Israeli side has not provided detailed information about the nature of the strikes or their exact targets. However, the evacuation order suggests that significant military operations are expected in the area. The situation is being closely monitored by international observers.
