Residents of Lebanon border village ‘refuse to submit to Israeli threats’
Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) is reporting that the residents of the southern village of Wazzani refused to flee after an Israeli drone dropped leaflets in the area ordering “immediate” evacuations.
“Indeed, most of the displaced Syrians left the town, while its residents remained steadfast in their homes,” the agency added.
The report came as the Anadolu Agency published photos of several families packing up and leaving the area following the Israeli notices.
As we’ve been reporting, Israel’s military has clarified that there are no evacuation orders for south Lebanon and said that the leaflets had been distributed without permission. It said it has opened an investigation into the incident.
