Israel orders evacuations in six south Lebanon towns

“Israel orders evacuations in six south Lebanon towns The Israeli military issued new evacuation orders for residents of the southern Lebanese towns and villages of Meiss El Jabal, Yanouh, Borj El Chmali, Houla, Debl and Aabbasiyyeh, warning that it would soon act against the areas “forcefully”. The military said anyone remaining in the locations would be endangering their lives and instructed residents to move at least 1,000 metres away to open areas. Separately, Israel said Hezbollah had launched several rockets towards Israeli soldiers operating in southern Lebanon over the past few hours, adding that the projectiles landed near troops without causing injuries. The military also said its air force intercepted a “suspicious aerial target” in the area, while warning sirens earlier sounded in Avivim after what was later determined to be a false alert involving a suspected hostile aircraft infiltration.
