Lebanon: Time given to evacuate ‘very limited’ before Israeli strikes • FRANCE 24 English

Israeli air strikes on Hezbollah strongholds in Lebanon on Monday killed 182 people, according to the Lebanese health ministry, in by far the deadliest cross-border escalation since war erupted in Gaza on October 7. Many Lebanese had received phone and text messages from Israel telling them to leave the targeted areas, but the time given for them to evacuate before the strikes began was in some cases “very limited”, reports France 24’s correspondent in Beirut Rawad Taha.

  1. Arabs, Muslims, whatever you call them, did this to themselves. They will always live in hardship and fear if they continue to harm Israelis. Now, the IDF will turn southern Lebanon into a rumbled no man's land, maybe a demilitarized zone.

  2. after all the war crimes and atrocitites we have witnessed, the media and the world leader are not calling israel "a terrorist state" ? who stands by a criminal is a criminal

  3. Lebanon is a beautiful country that should have a very high standard of living for all of its citizens because it should be one of the world's best tourist destinations. The one thing that has prevented this is the Islamic take over of the country by Iran thru Hezbollah. Sad situation.

  4. Not limited. Once announced,you should evacuate right away. Do not think twice because this is a war. Israelis do not receive a warning from hezbollah

  5. Too many Hasbara bot deployed by Israel to defend their Massacres Genocide and Terrorism on Civilians in Gaza and Lebanon. US Tax dollars lavishly used for War Crimes

  6. If it had been the US, UK, France being attacked daily with indiscriminate rocket fire, they would have invaded months ago. If it were Putins Russia, they would have flattened the place with artillery.
    But this is Israel. Giving warnings, fighting with one hand tied .
    But no doubt IDF actions will again be criticized. Their actions are disproportionate! Women and children killed will be media headlines.
    Until Hamas surrenders and Hezbollah is kicked out from Southern Lebanon, IDF should fight with gloves off.
    And Lebanese should learn that peace and prosperity for their country will not come while they allow a terrorist army to wage war from their country.
