In an unprecedented announcement, the IDF warned residents of southern Lebanon that it will start striking the bridges across the Litani River later today.
"Urgent Warning to Residents of Southern Lebanon - Due to Hezbollah activities and the transfer of terrorist elements to southern Lebanon with the support of the civilian population, the IDF is compelled to carry out extensive and precise targeting of Hezbollah's terrorist activities," said IDF Arabic Spokesman, Col. Avichay Adraee.
"Accordingly, and to prevent the transfer of reinforcements and combat means, the IDF intends to attack crossings on the Litani River starting from midday hours today. For your safety, you must continue moving to the area north of the Zahrani River and refrain from any movement southward that may put your lives at risk."
