IDF prepares to strike Lebanon coast, warns citizens to stay away from sea
Benjamin Netanyahu
The Israeli army said Monday it would expand its operations against Hezbollah to Lebanon's coast south of the Al-Awali river, and warned people to stay away from the shore in the area.
The army "will soon operate in the maritime area against Hezbollah's terrorist activities" south of the Al-Awali river, army spokesman Avichay Adraee said in a statement published in Arabic on social media.
“For your safety, refrain from being at the sea or on the beach from now until further notice. Being on the beach, and boat movements in the area of the Awali River line to the south, poses a threat to your life,” Adraee added.
Missile fired from Yemen
Earlier in the day, Israel's military said air defences intercepted a missile fired from Yemen onthe anniversary of the October 7 attacks.
"A surface-to-surface missile was fired from Yemen," where Iran-backed rebels have previously launched missiles towards Israel, the military said in a statement, with warning sirens audible in the commercial hub of Tel Aviv.
