Context of the Warnings
Conflicting assessments have emerged regarding the significance of these operations. Channel 13 quoted senior army officers claiming the strikes “do not constitute an escalation”, but are part of efforts to prevent Hezbollah from rebuilding its capabilities in the region.
The official broadcasting authority reinforced this position, noting that the government “does not seek escalation” and quoting a security official saying “there are no new instructions” for residents in northern occupied territories.
Details of the Warnings
The first alerts instructed residents of specific buildings in the villages of Taybeh and Tair Diba to evacuate immediately.
A subsequent warning targeted a specific building and its surrounding area in the village of Aita al-Jabal.
The ‘Israeli’ army later clarified that the warnings were limited to specific locations on maps, emphasizing that no broad evacuation of entire villages in southern Lebanon was requested.
