IDF Arabic-language spokesperson Lt. Col. Ella Waweya issued an urgent warning for Deir al-Zahrani in southern Lebanon after Hezbollah launched an explosive drone toward Israeli troops. She directed residents of a red-marked building and adjacent buildings to leave immediately, move at least 300 meters away and avoid returning until further notice. The IDF said the buildings stood near a Hezbollah facility that it intended to act against. Waweya said remaining in the area was dangerous and that the military did not intend to harm civilians.
