The Israeli occupation army continued to violate the ceasefire through shelling and airstrikes on southern towns, widening the scope of its attacks to areas beyond what it has termed the “defensive line.” It also issued new evacuation threats targeting additional southern localities, in what is seen as a blatant escalation of the temporary truce violations.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah’s Islamic Resistance in Lebanon continues to respond to these breaches in an effort to deter further aggression and impose equations, preventing the enemy from establishing stability in any southern area.
According to an Al-Manar correspondent, enemy warplanes launched morning and midday strikes targeting the towns of Tebnine, Jabal Al-Botm, Baraashit, and Shaqra before carrying out additional afternoon raids on Touline, Shaqra, Kherbet Selem, Baraashit, Majdalzoun, and Qabrikha.

The Israeli occupation army also shelled the town of Kounin with multiple artillery rounds and targeted the area between Braachit and Shaqra with phosphorus munitions.
Israeli drones carried out further strikes, hitting the town of Majdalzoun, the area between Burj Al-Shamali and Al-Housh near the city of Tyre, and a motorcycle in the town of Mansouri.
In parallel, the Israeli occupation army issued evacuation threats to 16 towns in southern Lebanon: Ghandoorieh, Burj Qalaouiyeh, Qalaouiyeh, Al-Sawaneh, Jmeijmeh, Safad Al-Battikh, Braachit, Shaqra, Aita Al-Jabal, Tebnine, Al-Sultaniyeh, Bir Al-Salasel, Kfar Dounin, Kherbet Selm, Sela’a, and Deir Kifa.
Later on Tuesday, Israeli warplanes launched an attack targeting Teir Dibba, Al-Bazouriyeh, and Wadi Jilo and carried out a bombing operation in the town of Al-Qantara.

By evening, the intensity of attacks had further escalated. According to later reports from Al-Manar’s correspondent, a series of Israeli airstrikes targeted multiple areas in southern Lebanon. Warplanes carried out raids on the towns of Jouaiya in the Tyre district, Al-Tiri in Bint Jbeil, and Al-Shehabiyeh, with the latter struck simultaneously alongside Jouwaya. In addition, a strike hit Kfar Tibnit in the Nabatieh district.
The correspondent also reported that an enemy drone detonated an explosive-laden vehicle along the main road in the Qleileh plain near the junction of Henniyeh, followed shortly by another drone strike targeting the town of Hanniyeh.
In a further escalation, Lebanese Civil Defense personnel and a Lebanese Army patrol in Majdal Zoun were reportedly targeted while carrying out evacuation operations for casualties resulting from an earlier strike on the area.
The Lebanese Army announces two soldiers were injured as a result of an Israeli attack targeting a patrol with members of the Civil Defense and two bulldozers in the town of Majdal Zoun during a rescue operation for citizens.
