The Lebanese army has recently evacuated observation posts along Lebanon's southern border with Israel, relocating to barracks in border villages, according to a Lebanese security source as reported by CNN. This move comes amidst escalating tensions between Lebanon and Israel.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has indicated to regional council heads in northern Israel that the 'next stage' of Israel's conflict with Hezbollah is set to commence soon. The Israeli military has also established a closed military zone around three towns in the far north along the border with Lebanon, fueling speculation of an imminent ground offensive in Lebanon.
