image sourced from original article at The Israel Defense Forces postponed a planned airstrike on a site in southern Lebanon after the Lebanese army requested access to the area, following an evacuation warning to residents. This rare move came as Israel published the location of the intended target, warning civilians to evacuate buildings allegedly used by Hezbollah. The Lebanese army, with ceasefire monitors and international forces present, inspected the site, leading Israel to delay its attack while continuing to monitor the situation.
Tensions remain high in southern Lebanon, with frequent Israeli strikes against Hezbollah infrastructure since the ceasefire agreement reached in late 2024. Lebanese officials have reported warnings from international parties about a potential large-scale Israeli operation, and the government is pursuing diplomatic efforts to prevent escalation and negotiate Hezbollah's disarmament. Despite the ceasefire terms, Hezbollah has not yet surrendered its weapons, and Israel maintains a military presence in the region.
