Israel military issues evacuation warning for south Lebanon Deir Aames village

The Israeli military on Friday warned residents of a village in southern Lebanon to immediately evacuate, the first such warning since U.S. President Donald Trump announced a three-week ceasefire extension.

"Urgent warning to the residents of the area of Deir Aames. Due to Hezbollah's terrorist activity, the IDF is conducting targeted operations in the area," the military's Arabic-language spokesman, Avichay Adraee wrote on X. "For your safety, we urge you to evacuate your homes immediately and move at least 1,000 metres outside the area," he added.

Deir Aames is located north of the so-called "Yellow Line" in Lebanon, south of which Israeli forces are operating despite the ceasefire.
