Israel is enforcing a new 'Yellow Line' buffer zone in southern Lebanon with airstrikes, treating the truce as temporary while continuing military operations.
Israeli Army Radio reports the army is now explicitly authorized to continue destroying buildings and infrastructure deemed a threat within the 'Yellow Line' zone.
The message adds that the 'Yellow Line' specifically permits the destruction of buildings and infrastructure in the buffer zone.
An analysis disputes the IDF's claimed level of control in the 'Yellow Line' buffer zone, providing a lower town count and details on the nature of settlements and operational status in major towns.
Hezbollah has issued a defiant response to the IDF's 'Yellow Line' declaration, stating "the yellow flag will never fall" and emphasizing that wars are decided on the ground.
The report adds that the IDF carried out a bombing in Rashaf following the 'Yellow Line' announcement and frames the situation as Israel using the truce to continue operations with a Gaza-like model.
