The Israeli military says it established a “yellow line” demarcation in southern Lebanon, similar to the one separating its forces from territory still held by Hamas in Gaza. It claimed it has already struck suspected Hezbollah fighters approaching its troops along the line. “Over the past 24 hours, [army] forces operating south of the Yellow Line in southern Lebanon identified terrorists who violated the ceasefire understandings and approached the forces from north of the Yellow Line in a manner that posed an immediate threat,” the military said, referring to such a line for the first time since a ceasefire came into effect.
