The Israeli military repeatedly launches attacks after issuing such alerts, leaving residents with minutes to escape
\n Beirut
\nThe Israeli military hit areas south of Lebanon\u2019s capital, Beirut, shortly after issuing evacuation orders.
\nIt claimed the attacks were aimed at Hezbollah strongholds on Thursday, as it has in the past, but the increasing number of raids have killed hundreds of civilians and displaced tens of thousands.
\nA plume of grey smoke rose over the area after the latest attacks. The state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported Israel launched a \u201cviolent\u201d attack on the Ghobeiry area, which came under the latest evacuation orders, hitting near Rawdat al-Shahidain.
\nAvichay Adraee, the Israeli army\u2019s Arabic language spokesman, published the details of the orders forcibly displacing residents, with a map highlighting buildings the army deemed \u201cHezbollah infrastructure\u201d, saying the Choueifat el-Aamroussieh and Ghobeiry areas would be struck.
\nAerial bombardment typically follows these evacuation orders, often leaving residents with minutes to escape.
\nThe Israeli military carried out two attacks on Choueifat el-Aamroussieh and Ghobeiry, which lie on the southern outskirts of Beirut, NNA reported.
\nRepeated Israeli air raids on south Beirut have led to an exodus of civilians, although some return to check on their homes and businesses.
\nAccording to NNA, there was also heavy Israeli bombardment in the southern town of Bint Jbeil on Thursday. Several blocks of apartments in the town barely 3km (2 miles) from the Israeli border were destroyed in air raids or shelling, it said.
\nIn a second order, the army said residents of Haret Hreik and Burj al-Barajneh, also in the southern suburbs of Beirut, should flee their homes.
\nAt least 3,365 people have been killed and 14,344 wounded in Israeli attacks on Lebanon since the war on Gaza began last October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
