Israel-Gaza-Lebanon updates: Nasrallah killed for tying Hezbollah cause to Gaza war

As Israeli forces continue to bombard southern Lebanon, the Israel Defense Forces is calling on civilians living in Lebanon’s Beqaa Valley to leave now. This comes after an earlier call for civilians to leave southern Lebanon.

"I urge the Lebanese residents of the villages in the Beqaa Valley who are inside or near houses where rockets and weapons are stored, to move away immediately! For your safety and protection," IDF spokesman spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said Monday.

Hagari claimed every house the IDF is striking contains rockets, missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles "that are intended to kill Israeli civilians."

The Lebanese Ministry of Public Health said 182 people were killed and more than 700 were wounded in Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon on Monday.

Women, children and medical personnel were among the casualties, the ministry said.

Israeli warplanes struck 300 Hezbollah targets in the south of the country on Monday morning, the Israel Defense Forces said, following a weekend of intense exchanges across the Israel-Lebanon border.

Dozens of Israeli warplanes struck at least 300 targets in southern Lebanon on Monday morning, according to the Israel Defense Forces, the attacks coinciding with an IDF warning of an expanded airstrike campaign against Hezbollah.

A steady bombardment rocked several Lebanese villages close to the Israeli border.

Lebanon’s Health Ministry said at least one person was killed and 20 injured in the ongoing strikes.

Israel Defense Forces spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari warned Lebanese border residents that more Israeli strikes are planned against Hezbollah "terrorist infrastructure" -- specifically on homes hiding missiles.

In a statement and accompanying video released on Monday morning, Hagari accused Hezbollah of using residential properties to house and fire cruise missiles.

"The terrorists create a designated opening for the missile launch," Hagari said, showing footage of a purported strike on a building being prepared for an attack by a Hezbollah operative.

"Shortly, the IDF will engage in extensive, precise strikes against terror targets which have been embedded widely throughout Lebanon," Hagari added.

"We advise civilians from Lebanese villages located in and next to buildings and areas used by Hezbollah for military purposes, such as those used to store weapons, to immediately move out of harm's way for their own safety."
