Voice of News on 🆃🅴🅻🅴🅶🆁🅰️🅼🔴 published footage of the strikes throughout the morning and evening, while Kan 11 | Arab-Palestinian Desk – a channel that often presents the Palestinian narrative and is critical of Israel – published footage of the residents of the city of Tyre fleeing their homes following the IDF's evacuation warnings.

Additional sources on the ground, including News 360 | All The News, reported that the strikes focused on the settlements of Arab Salim, Al-Khuraib, and Arab al-Jaal, where the targets of the strikes and their consequences are currently under review.
