Israeli army drops threading flyers in Lebanon
The Israeli army has dropped leaflets over four villages in southern Lebanon, threatening residents to stay away from their local leaders, who it claims are “linked to Hezbollah.”
“Stay away from them, they’re in our crosshairs,” the flyers read, according to a report from the Israeli daily Haaretz.
The move coincided with US envoy Tom Barrack’s visit to Lebanon. He cancelled a planned stop in the village of al-Khiyam, one of the areas targeted by the leaflets, over fears his arrival could spark pro-Hezbollah protests.
