Israeli Airstrikes Hit Southern Lebanon, Ambulance Team Targeted

  • On Friday, the Lebanese Army established a new position near Deir Mimas in southern Lebanon, prompting Israeli forces to advance toward the checkpoint and force soldiers to retreat from the area.
  • Following the initial retreat, Lebanese Army reinforcements returned to the checkpoint with two Humvee vehicles, but Israeli forces fired stun grenades at the soldiers during their redeployment attempt.
  • Residents describe Deir Mimas as a "besieged town" in recent hours, with Israeli forces positioned at the main entrance, leaving locals unable to enter or leave their homes.
  • Israeli forces have since withdrawn to Tall al-Nahas, while the Lebanese Army remains stationed along the main Burj al-Muluk road, according to local sources in the region.
  • These incidents occur within the occupied "buffer zone," where contacts have begun to address the dispute and prevent further escalation between the two forces.
