Quick Summary
At war with Iran-backed Hezbollah, Israel on Wednesday has called on everyone living south of the Zahrani River to evacuate immediately. It is an area comprising 14 percent of Lebanon's territory, and is highlighted in red in the maps posted by the Israeli military. FRANCE 24's Claire Paccalin reports from the emptied city of Tyre, as the war has already forced more than a million Lebanese to flee their homes.
