The Israeli army has warned displaced civilians against returning to their homes in 62 villages in southern Lebanon despite a cease-fire agreement, Anadolu Agency reports.

Military spokesman Avichay Adraee posted the warning on his X account with an attached map showing the targeted villages.

“A new reminder for the residents of southern Lebanon… At this stage, it is prohibited for you to return to your homes south of this line until further notice. Anyone crossing south of this line puts themselves at risk,” Adraee said.

Lebanon and Israel reached a cease-fire deal on November 27 to end over 14 months of fighting between the Israeli army and the Hezbollah group.
