Traffic jams are reported in southern Lebanon Monday as residents drive back to their homes, according to Lebanese sources cited by Israeli analyst Zvi Yehezkeli. Many returnees are heading south, continuing a trend reported over the past week.
Reports from Lebanon, cited by Israeli analyst Zvi Yehezkeli, indicate heavy traffic congestion on roads in southern Lebanon as residents return southward to their homes. The movement continues a pattern documented over the past week, following the ceasefire that took effect between Israel and Hezbollah. As The Zioneer reported over the past week, returning civilians have encountered widespread destruction in Hezbollah strongholds, destroyed military vehicles along roadsides, and, in some cases, have been seen waving Hezbollah flags. Earlier reporting noted the Lebanese army urging residents to slow their return due to Israeli aerial surveillance, while the IDF has not yet issued an official statement permitting return to the area. No official Israeli or Lebanese confirmation of the extent of the current traffic is available.
