"The IDF (Israeli army) does not intend to harm you, and for your safety, you must evacuate your homes immediately and head north of the Awali River. Save your lives," Army spokesman Avichay Adraee said on X.
Meanwhile, the Lebanese group Hezbollah said it set off two explosives against advancing Israeli forces on the southern border on Thursday.
The Iran-backed group added that it detonated the "explosive devices" at dawn as "an enemy Israeli infantry force carried out an infiltration attempt towards the town of Maroun al-Ras" in Lebanon near the border.
