Israeli Drone Strikes Hit Southern City of Tyre

Lebanese state media reported an Israeli drone strike on a street in Tyre on Wednesday, following warnings from the Israeli army for residents to evacuate large areas of the southern city.

According to the National News Agency, “an enemy drone targeted” a street in Tyre. AFPTV footage captured thick black smoke rising from the city.

Earlier that day, Lebanese civilians fled Tyre after the Israeli army issued evacuation warnings ahead of planned military operations. Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee shared a map on the social media platform X, highlighting the affected streets and urging residents to “immediately move out of the area marked in red and head north of the Awali River.” He warned that anyone near Hezbollah members, facilities, or combat equipment was putting their life at risk.
