Israel is evacuating people from more than two dozen communities along the Lebanese border following hostilities with Iran-backed Hezbollah forces that erupted amid the growing war in the Gaza Strip.
On Monday, the Israel Defense Forces and the National Emergency Management Authority jointly issued a plan to send residents from 28 villages within one mile of the border with Lebanon to state-funded guest houses in the interior of Israel.
Lebanese Hezbollah fighters and IDF units in northern Israel have exchanged sporadic artillery and rocket fire over the past week amid fears that ongoing battles with Hamas terrorists in Gaza could escalate into a broader war.
