“Due to the terrorist organisation Hezbollah violating the ceasefire agreement, the Israel Defence Forces are forced to act against it with force. The IDF does not intend to harm you. For your safety, you must immediately leave your homes and move away from villages and settlements to a distance of at least 1,000 metres into open areas. Anyone who is near Hezbollah elements, its facilities, and weapons is putting their life in danger,” the statement said.
