Israel to evacuate Lebanon

The Israeli military has confirmed it will conduct airstrikes in southern Beirut, urging civilians to evacuate areas near Hezbollah's command centers due to ongoing military operations. Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari emphasized the precision of the strikes and warned that the civilian airport in Beirut may be utilized for military purposes. Reports indicate that streets in the usually busy Dahieh neighborhood are deserted, with a notable quietness despite the ongoing attacks. Residents have expressed fear and uncertainty about the future, with mixed feelings towards both Israel and Hezbollah. The IDF has specified evacuation orders for several neighborhoods, including Lilaki and Hadath, urging civilians to move at least 500 meters away from Hezbollah-affiliated sites. This military escalation highlights the tense situation in Lebanon amid fears of further conflict.
