01 · THE DISPATCH

Lebanese reports circulated Monday afternoon state that IDF forces are firing in the vicinity of the village of Tebnin (Tebnit) in southern Lebanon, with the stated objective of preventing residents from returning to the area. The reports do not specify the type of fire, targets, or any casualties. The village lies in the Nabatieh district, part of the contact zone where the IDF has been conducting operations since the start of the ground campaign in southern Lebanon. As The Zioneer reported earlier Monday, IDF forces conducted controlled demolitions and artillery fire in several villages in the same district, including Tebnin, Hadatha, and Rashaf, also targeting vehicles of civilians attempting to return to the village of Ruman. Prior coverage has documented a pattern of IDF strikes across southern Lebanese villages aimed at impeding the return of residents to areas the military deems within the active combat zone. No official Israeli confirmation of the reported firing has been issued at this time.
