Live updates: Israel sends more troops into Lebanon and vows Iran will pay for missile attack

Updated Oct. 2, 2024, 2:45 PM GMT+5 Israel's military said Wednesday it was sending new ground forces into southern Lebanon, as Iran warned the U.S. and its ally against retaliation for its ballistic missile attack. Israel vowed Iran "will pay" for its attack, while Tehran urged the U.S. to "step aside" and warned any retaliation will be met with "an even tougher response," as fears grew of all-out war in the Middle East. IDF issues urgent evacuation warning for more southern Lebanon residents The IDF issued an evacuation warning for dozens of villages in southern Lebanon today, saying "any home used by Hezbollah for its military needs is expected to be targeted." “You must immediately head north of the Awali River,” the IDF said, referring to the river that is nearly 50 miles from the Israeli border and one third of the way into Lebanon's entire length. The warning was issued for residents of 21 villages and towns, with the IDF's Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee saying on X, "Anyone who is near Hezbollah members, installations, and combat equipment is putting their life at risk." "Save your lives and evacuate your homes immediately," he said, "We will inform you of the safe time to return to your homes."
