"Israeli forces have been destroying more than 1,000 homes per day since March 2, sometimes wiping out entire villages across southern Lebanon. The campaign escalated later in the month after Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered the military to 'accelerate the destruction of Lebanese homes' near the Israeli border based on the 'model in Gaza.'"
"The Israeli army announced the establishment of a 'yellow line' in South Lebanon, which separates 55 occupied southern villages from the rest of Lebanon, stretching from Naqoura to eastern Lebanon, at 8 to 10 kilometers deep."
"Israel has described this as an effort to destroy Hezbollah infrastructure. However, the razing of entire villages has often appeared indiscriminate, with numerous attacks targeting or damaging schools, hospitals, and other nonmilitary infrastructure."
Despite a ceasefire, Israel has intensified its military campaign in southern Lebanon, destroying over 1,000 homes daily since March 2. The Israeli Army has established a 'yellow line' to occupy 10% of Lebanese territory, affecting 55 towns and villages. This strategy, ordered by Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz, aims to replicate the destruction seen in Gaza, where significant infrastructure has been obliterated. The attacks have often targeted nonmilitary infrastructure, raising concerns about the indiscriminate nature of the operations.
