Israel has launched a large-scale military operation in southern Lebanon, focusing on the Shebaa Farms and Wadi al-Saluki areas. Army spokesperson Ela Waweya said the operation aims to destroy what Israel calls 'terrorist infrastructure' and strengthen operational control in the region. The campaign, which began several days earlier, involves ground forces expanding the front line and extending attacks north of the Litani River against Hezbollah. Israeli troops are also operating near Nabatieh and are prepared to widen the offensive if necessary.

According to Al Jazeera, Israeli forces are attempting to encircle the city of Nabatieh while conducting heavy bombardment and airstrikes toward other towns. Since the beginning of the campaign, Israel has declared the entire southern region of Lebanon a conflict zone and warned residents to move north of the Zahrani River. The escalation has intensified an already severe humanitarian crisis, with more than one million people reportedly displaced by the ongoing Israeli offensive.

The situation in southern Lebanon remains volatile as Israeli operations continue to expand into new areas, raising concerns about further civilian displacement and regional instability.
