The Israeli army has issued a forced evacuation order for residents of eight towns and villages in southern Lebanon, Al Jazeera reports.

Military spokesperson Avichay Adraee has urged in a post on X people from Khirbet Selm, Bir al-Sanasil, Qabrikha, Majdal Selm, Qalawiya, Kfar Dunin, Touline and Sawana to “immediately” abandon their homes due to what he says were Hezbollah violations of a ceasefire agreed last month and which was recently extended.
