The U.S. Defense Secretary has condemned Iran's recent attack as an "outrageous act of aggression" in a statement made alongside his Israeli counterpart. In a warning issued by Israel’s Arabic language military spokesperson, residents in Lebanon have been advised to refrain from moving their vehicles due to ongoing "heavy fighting" in the region. Avichay Adraee highlighted that Hezbollah forces are reportedly using the civilian environment and local population as human shields during their attacks. The military spokesperson urged individuals to prioritize their safety and avoid traveling from the northern areas to the southern region of the Litani River, stating that this warning will remain in effect until further notice.
