The Israeli military has issued evacuation orders for residents in two villages in Lebanon's eastern Bekaa region: Sareen al-Tahta and Tamnin. Avichay Adraee, the IDF's Arabic language spokesman, advised people to move at least 500 meters away from buildings in Sareen al-Tahta due to their proximity to "Hezbollah facilities" that the IDF plans to target soon. The evacuation warnings typically precede Israeli airstrikes, and today's announcements follow reports of heavy strikes along Lebanon's eastern borders overnight. Such warnings are part of Israel's ongoing military operations in the region as tensions escalate.
