Corroborated · South Lebanon, Lebanon (approximate) ·
Anadolu reports that the Israeli army carried out demolitions in southern Lebanon. Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz says more than 60 villages in southern Lebanon, up to the Yellow Line, have been destroyed, with 23,000 homes demolished; a repost of his statement adds a 700 square kilometre security zone and about 200,000 displaced residents. These are the minister's own claims and have not been independently verified.

Details by origin
Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
