Following an Israeli evacuation order on Wednesday night, heavy airstrikes were reported across southern Lebanon, including Nabatieh, Sidon and Tyre; at least eight people have been killed, including children.
On Wednesday, the IDF launched a wave of strikes on what it said are “Hezbollah command centers in the area of Tyre,” two hours after issuing an evacuation order for the Lebanese coastal city’s 200,000 residents.
So far, the Lebanese National News Agency has reported that two people were killed in a drone strike on a motorcycle in Tyre and six people were killed, including children, in the Nabi Sari area south of Sidon. In the Qaya’a neighborhood of Sidon, an IDF strike targeted a multi-story building inhabited by a displaced family from the south, located across from the Medical Relief Association, NNA reported.
