[Regnum] The British Foreign Office appealed to citizens to refrain from traveling to Lebanon, as well as to leave the territory of the republic of British citizens currently staying there. “We do not recommend that you visit any of Lebanon. If you are currently in Lebanon, we urge you to leave while commercial options remain available,” the Foreign Office said in a statement published on October 18 on the UK government’s official website. As Regnum reported , on Wednesday the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched strikes at targets of the Shiite Hezbollah movement in Lebanon. The Israeli military said in a statement that the targets of the attack were the group's observation post and military infrastructure. Shortly before this, the Israel Defense Forces reported attacks on the city of Metula with anti-tank missiles from Lebanon. The attack injured two Israeli soldiers and one civilian. On October 15, IDF spokesman Brigadier General Daniel Hagari said that Israeli troops would operate anywhere in the Middle East to ensure the security of their country. |
