The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have reportedly dropped leaflets in the Wazzani area of southern Lebanon, calling for residents to evacuate by 4 p.m. local time. The leaflets warn that Hezbollah is firing rockets from the area and that civilians should move north to the Al-Khiyam area. This marks the first time since the war began that the IDF has taken such an action. The leaflets also instruct residents not to return until the end of the war, indicating a significant escalation in the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah. The warnings specifically mention the border village of Wazzani and areas near Ghajar.
