Hezbollah warns Israel residents to evacuate from area with Lebanon border

Hezbollah on Friday warned Israeli residents to evacuate areas within five kilometers of the border with Lebanon, a day after Israel told residents of Beirut's southern suburbs to flee.

In a message in Hebrew in the group's Telegram channels, Hezbollah told Israelis to evacuate all localities "located within 5 kilometers of the border".

"This is due to the (Israeli) army's deployment of military vehicles and armored personnel carriers in open areas, using these areas as military deployment points," it added.
