Israel's Arabic-language military spokesperson warned residents of Tyre, including the Christian quarter, camps, and surrounding neighborhoods, to evacuate north of the Zahrani River ahead of strikes. AP later reported that the warning prompted hundreds of residents to flee and civil-defense crews to move older residents.

Context

The warning widened the Lebanon front from repeated strike points into a city-scale displacement event, setting up the later casualty reports and the religious leaders' appeal over the old quarter.
