The Israeli military has issued an urgent warning to residents of 11 towns and villages in southern Lebanon, ordering them to evacuate their homes and move at least 1,000 metres away to open areas, according to Reuters.

The military said it was conducting operations against Hezbollah following what it described as a violation of their ceasefire agreement, warning that anyone near Hezbollah fighters or facilities could be at risk.

Israel has continued to carry out strikes across southern Lebanon, and its troops are occupying a strip of the country’s south.
