For the first time/ Israel orders the evacuation of all neighborhoods in south

The Israeli military has issued an urgent evacuation warning for all neighborhoods in the southern suburbs of Beirut. This is a widening of the area, unlike previous evacuation orders that were usually limited to specific buildings.

In a post on “X” on Thursday, the Arabic-language spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Avichay Adraee, called on residents of Burj al-Barajneh and Haret Hreik/Al-Hadath to evacuate via 2 main highways.

The statement warned residents not to head south, saying any movement in that direction could endanger their lives, and said the military would announce when it was safe for residents to return.

The neighborhoods being evacuated are home to tens of thousands of people and are predominantly Shiite areas long considered Hezbollah strongholds. This type of evacuation warning is the first of its kind in recent years, including during the 2024 confrontation. /CNA
