Last night (Monday), Lebanon reported that an IDF ground force, supported by armored vehicles, crossed the border and operated in the Khirbet al-Murah area, on the outskirts of the eastern part of the village of Meiss al-Jabal. According to reports, the force reached an area with populated homes and positioned itself several hundred meters inside Lebanon.

Several Lebanese families abandoned their homes as the IDF approached. IDF bulldozers were brought to the area. Following the entry of the IDF ground force, the Lebanese army has been conducting patrols and sweeps in the town, near the Israeli force.

The IDF’s move was aimed at Hezbollah operatives and intended to ensure that order and calm are maintained. The IDF is also verifying that the enforcement of the ceasefire agreement is being properly upheld.
