The Israeli army on Friday issued urgent evacuation warnings to residents of three Lebanese municipalities, ordering immediate relocation at least 1,000 meters from their homes despite a fragile ceasefire Washington extended until early July. Military statements identified the affected areas as Arnaya — also known as Arnaba — along with Anqoun and Kfar Fila, directing residents to abandon their homes immediately and move to open areas.
Fragile truce under pressure
The orders came despite the ceasefire Washington extended until early July, which has been in place since April 17 amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to prevent its collapse. Israeli forces have maintained operations in the border region throughout the agreement's duration.
Similar displacement directives have targeted multiple southern Lebanese villages during the ceasefire period. The current evacuation order applies to towns located within the contested border area as diplomatic channels work to preserve the truce through early July.
