The Israel Defense Forces has established a presence at Christophani Ridge in southern Lebanon, arriving via airlift primarily from Syria with some elements from the Golan Heights. This deployment aims to create a permanent foothold similar to Israel's position on Syria's Jabal al-Sheikh. The IDF has not crossed the Litani River and maintains no control over Yohmor, Beaufort Ridge, or Kounine, with minimal to no presence in Al-Tiri. These areas are being depopulated to deny observation points overlooking Israeli-occupied territories.
