The IDF has evacuated the entire Shiite village of Al-Mansouri in southern Lebanon, which lies within the security zone, and the village is set to be bombed, according to a report. The village was used by Hezbollah operatives who returned under the cover of the Lebanese army, which set up checkpoints in the area in violation of the ceasefire agreements, the report states. A lethal attack against Israeli forces originated from the village after Israeli strikes were carried out.
Earlier today, an Israeli military source stated that the Lebanese army had established a checkpoint in al-Mansouri, a violation of the ceasefire, and that the IDF had evacuated Lebanese civilians from the area to protect their safety. The evacuation and planned bombing of the village mark a significant escalation in the IDF's operations in the security zone.
