The official Lebanese state news agency reports that the IDF detonated a remotely operated, booby-trapped armored personnel carrier on the Tebnine–Haris road in southern Lebanon on Monday morning to prevent Lebanese residents from returning to their homes in the area.
The official Lebanese state news agency reported Monday morning that the IDF detonated a remotely operated, booby-trapped armored personnel carrier (APC) on the Tebnine–Haris road in southern Lebanon, citing the move as an effort to prevent Lebanese residents from returning to their homes in the area.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Monday (08:36), the same APC — an M113 — was first noted advancing near Haris before being detonated in a controlled explosion. This latest report from the Lebanese state agency adds the explicit context that the blast was timed to block the return of residents rather than for routine demolition.
Separate Lebanese reports and videos posted on Monday show residents returning to villages including Burj Qallawiya, al-Mansouri, Mifdun, Deir Aames, and Kafr Juz, despite ongoing evacuation warnings for parts of southern Lebanon — indicating a widening movement of returnees coinciding with the announcement of the Iran–U.S. agreement.
The IDF has not commented on this specific incident. Sources underpinning this bulletin include a single official Lebanese report; no Israeli corroboration is yet available.
