Hezbollah urges immediate evacuation of northern Israeli settlements
Lebanon’s Hezbollah has issued an evacuation order for 25 Israeli settlements and cities north of the occupied Palestinian territories amid the regime’s aggression on southern Lebanon and heavy fire exchanges with the resistance movement over the past year.
Lebanon’s al-Manar television network reported on Saturday that Hezbollah Military Media had released a video that warned the Zionist settlers remaining in 25 settlements and cities to “evacuate immediately.”
The settlements included Kiryat Shmona, Nahariya, Rosh Pina, Katzrin, and 21 of others.
“You are requested to evacuate immediately,” Hezbollah warning read.
“Your settlements have become bases and staging grounds for enemy military forces attacking Lebanon. As a result, they have become legitimate military targets for the Islamic Resistance’s air and missile forces.”
The municipal councils in the northern settlements reportedly refrained from reopening schools in the occupied area and said the educational process would be continued online.
Hezbollah announced on Friday a record 48 military operations against the Zionist entity with a barrage of missiles and drones in coordinated waves, surpassing the previous high of 39 operations set earlier in the week.
The Lebanese resistance movement has significantly scaled up its operations against the Israeli forces in response to a series of assassinations of its leaders, showcasing its advanced military capabilities.
Israel has been targeting Lebanon since October 2023, after Hezbollah announced the opening of a “support front” in response to the Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, killing tens of thousands of Palestinians.
As many as 2,483 Lebanese people have been killed and 11,628 others wounded as a result of the regime’s intensified attacks against the country.
Hezbollah has been responding to the aggression with numerous retaliatory operations, targeting the occupied Palestinian territories.
