Transcript

Israel has established a so-called "yellow line" in southern Lebanon, marking a new military measure similar to its approach in Gaza. This is the first time Israel refers to such a line in Lebanon, coming just after a 10-day ceasefire between the two regions. The Israeli military claims they identified threats from fighters approaching this line, posing an immediate danger. What's interesting is that since an October ceasefire in Gaza, the yellow line has divided that territory into zones, controlling movement for Palestinians. In Lebanon, Israeli forces have already launched artillery attacks on towns like Beit Leif and Qantara, despite the ceasefire. Israeli Minister of Defence Israel Katz has emphasized demolishing villages along the border, drawing parallels to Gaza's situation.
