Israel threatens major attack on southern Lebanon

Israeli forces have threatened a major attack on southern Lebanon, issuing an "urgent warning" for residents to stay away from Hezbollah “terrorist infrastructure”.

Military spokesman Avichay Adraee said in a statement that the army "will attack Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure throughout southern Lebanon to counter Hezbollah’s prohibited attempts to rebuild its activities in the area".

Israel has launched near-daily attacks on Lebanon since a ceasefire came into effect in November 2024.
