Get out of the way, Israel warns Lebanese after missile barrage

Netanyahu takes country to brink of all-out war with Hezbollah as IDF claims to have hit 1,300 targets across southern Lebanon

Benjamin Netanyahu warned Lebanese civilians “to get out of harm’s way” on Monday after Israel embarked on a full-scale air offensive against Hezbollah.

As his forces launched a devastating wave of attacks across Lebanon, the Israeli prime minister urged residents living in Hezbollah strongholds to flee their homes rather than allow the Iran-backed movement to use them as “human shields”.

“Israel’s war is not with you,” he said in a televised message. “It is with Hezbollah.”
