Israeli evacuation orders affect 14 percent of Lebanon, NGO says Over an eighth of Lebanon's territory is under Israel's forced evacuation orders, an aid group said on Friday, while the United Nations peacekeeping mission said Israeli ground troops were making incursions and erecting roadblocks. The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) said Israel's evacuation orders for southern Lebanon and parts of Beirut now covered about 1,470 square kilometres, or about 14 percent of the country.

They aren’t real but – often made with the help of cutting-edge AI – they are wildly misleading. They may get debunked, but somehow that doesn’t make a dent. Continue reading...
