In a sign of the expansion of the IDF's war against Hezbollah, Northern Command has greatly expanded the closed military zone along the border.
In a sign of expanding IDF operations along the border, the Northern Command Commander has signed an order designating an enlarged part of the area next to Lebanon as a closed military zone today (Monday).
The order includes the areas of Rosh Hanikrah, Shlomi, Hanitah, Admit, and Arab al-Aramsheh, effectively closing off a swath of land from the Galilee Panhandle to the Mediterranean Sea.
The IDF Spokesperson in Arabic just posted a warning today on X informing all Lebanese who visit the shores or use boats in the area of southern Lebanon to avoid doing so.
In his post, the Spokesperson said that Lebanese vacationers and boat owners should avoid going near the shore or sea area south of the Awali river, which itself lies to the north of the Litani river delineating southern Lebanon from the rest of the country.
While he did not specify the sort of activity involved, the IDF may be trying to prevent naval reinforcement of Hezbollah with arms and manpower and perhaps also trying to launch raids against Hezbollah-held territory from the sea.
