Israeli raids in southern Lebanon: four dead and twenty injured after the eviction order

The Lebanese Health Ministry reported the deaths of four people, including two women, in raids in the south of the country blamed on Israeli forces after an eviction order. Israel for its part announced that it had conducted raids after a drone attack by Hezbollah against its soldiers.

The Beirut ministry reported two people killed in Nabatiyé el-Faouqa and two others (both women) in Arabsalim, a nearby town, specifying that another 20 people were injured in different places, including women and three children. Israel, writes Al Jazeera, issued a forced evacuation order for the village around 6am (5am in Italy), stating that it was a response to a drone attack by Hezbollah against Israeli forces.

Israel has announced that it is carrying out some raids in southern Lebanon in response to the launch of two drones by Hezbollah against some IDF soldiers who were on duty in the Security Zone. The same soldiers opened fire, destroying one of the two drones. In the note, distributed on Telegram, the IDF excludes injuries. "This - we read - is a clear violation by the terrorist organization Hezbollah". "The IDF soldiers - concludes the statement - will continue to operate in the Security Zone with the aim of removing any threat to Israeli civilians and soldiers".

According to Al Jazeera, in addition to Arab Salim, the IDF raids also hit Nabatieh al-Fawqa near Kfar Reman.
