Hezbollah evacuates some positions in Lebanon, Syria: Report
Hezbollah and its affiliated groups have evacuated some positions in parts of Lebanon and Syria after Israel promised to exact a “heavy price” over the deadly rocket attack on the occupied Golan Heights, according to AFP.
A source close to the Lebanese armed group told AFP that “Hezbollah has evacuated some positions in the south and in the Bekaa Valley [in the east] that it thinks could be a target for Israel”.
In Syria, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based war monitor, said pro-Iran groups and Hezbollah-affiliated fighters have “evacuated their positions” south of the capital, Damascus, and in the surrounding countryside, as well as in parts of the Syrian-controlled Golan Heights, in anticipation of “potential Israeli airstrikes”.
