Several municipalities in the western and central sectors of the border region in southern Lebanon have advised residents, journalists, media personnel and visitors to remain vigilant about the landmines left behind by the Israeli army, some of which have been booby-trapped to target civilians, the state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported Saturday. 

Four people, including two children, were killed Friday in Tayr Harfa, southern Lebanon, when furniture rigged with explosives left by the Israeli army detonated, our correspondent in the south reported.

The Israeli military continues to occupy several villages in southern Lebanon, from which it is required to withdraw by Feb. 18, 2025, in line with the extended cease-fire agreement. Meanwhile, the Israeli military continues to destroy houses and infrastructure in areas it still occupies and conducts sporadic strikes across the region, often using drones. The Lebanese Army continues to deploy and reinforce its units in southern Lebanon in accordance with the cease-fire terms.
