"Salam accused Israel of intimidation and aggressions committed in defiance of last year's ceasefire and the internationally backed mechanism to monitor it. Lebanon calls on the international community, especially the countries sponsoring the agreement to cease hostile operations, to exert maximum pressure on Israel to immediately stop its aggressions, said Salam in a post on social media. France and the United States are the main sponsors of the deal."
"Earlier, the Israeli military had announced the planned attacks on Hezbollah military infrastructure and called on residents to evacuate buildings marked in red on an attached map. Spokesman Avichay Adraee said that the attacks were being carried out in response to Hezbollah's prohibited attempts to rebuild its activities in the region. Reporting from Lebanon's capital Beirut, Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr said the Israeli army's warning had prompted mass evacuations."
Israel ordered residents in southern Lebanon to evacuate within an hour before carrying out air strikes targeting Hezbollah infrastructure. The strikes hit Meiss el-Jabal, Kfar Tebnit and Debbin, prompting condemnation from Prime Minister Nawaf Salam who called on the international community and the ceasefire sponsors to pressure Israel to stop the aggressions. The Israeli military said it targeted Hezbollah military infrastructure and directed residents to evacuate buildings marked in red. A military spokesman framed the attacks as a response to Hezbollah's attempts to rebuild activities. Evacuation warnings led to mass movements of civilians to safer areas. Strikes have continued despite a November 2024 ceasefire.
