Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz announced Sunday that Ali al-Tahir heights in southern Lebanon now falls within Israel's "Yellow Line" and designated security zone, according to Shehab Wire. Katz threatened to kill anyone who approaches the area.
The declaration extends Israel's claimed security perimeter into Lebanese territory, part of a pattern of Israeli military control assertions in the border region.
