Residents flee Dahieh and east and south Lebanon as Israel warns of strikes

The Israeli army warned Monday of imminent strikes on several regions in east and south Lebanon and Beirut's southern suburbs.

"You are located near facilities and assets belonging to Hezbollah, where the (Israeli military) will act against them forcefully in the near term," the army’s Arabic-language spokesperson, Lieutenant Colonel Ella Waweya, said on X.

"For your safety and the safety of your family members, you must evacuate this building and those adjacent to it immediately and stay away from them by a distance of at least 300 meters," said the posts, which included a map of the targeted buildings.

In the east, the targeted buildings are in Bednayel, Hermel, Labweh, Ain Borday, Hosh al Ghanam, and Mashghara. In south Lebanon, residents were asked to evacuate buildings in Tyre, Deir Qanoun, Nabatieh, Bint Jbeil, Qana, Deir Al-Zahrani, al-Sultaniyeh, Toul, Habboush and Maaroub. Another post warned residents of Burj al-Barajneh in Dahieh.

The army's Arabic-language spokesperson had earlier announced that the Israel will strike al-Qard al-Hassan branches across Lebanon.
