The Lebanese Armed Forces have closed the road to Nabatieh al-Fawqa and the village of Tebnit, as well as the road from Kfar Rumman to Marjayoun, citing the presence of Israeli forces in these areas, according to Abu Ali Express.
The Lebanese Army's road closures mark an extension of the restrictions imposed in the Nabatieh district as Israeli ground operations continue in the area. Our earlier report at 11:43 noted the closure of the road to Nabatieh al-Fawqa and Kfar Tebnit; this update adds the road from Kfar Rumman to Marjayoun as a newly closed route. The closures effectively block civilian access to multiple villages in the sector where IDF forces have been operating since earlier this week. The Lebanese military announced the closures explicitly due to the presence of IDF forces, formalizing a de facto separation between Lebanese civilian movement and areas of Israeli military activity. As of this report, no official IDF or Lebanese Army confirmation of the scope of the closures has been issued beyond the single-source report from Abu Ali Express.
