The Israel Defense Forces are withdrawing from the contested coastal zone between Naqoura Beach and Majdal Zoun in southern Lebanon. The pullback involves multiple axes, with forces moving southward, westward toward Aalma El Chaeb, and inland toward Tayr Harfa. This consolidation places IDF units behind a designated red ceasefire buffer line that cuts through the sector. The retreat appears to be a tactical realignment, trading forward positions for a more defensible line along the established demarcation boundary.
