\r\n\tThe Israel Defense Forces (IDF) released an updated map on Thursday of the security zone they control in southern Lebanon<\/strong><\/p>

The move signals that Israeli troops intend to remain in the region, even with calls for restraint from US President Donald Trump.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nAccording to the Israeli army’s statement, the military presence is due to “operational needs.” Soldiers are positioned in an area extending approximately 10 kilometers (6 miles) into Lebanese territory.<\/p>

\r\nThe objective is to continue removing threats and reinforcing the defense of residents in northern Israel.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThe map shows that the zone controlled by Israel follows the border with the Jewish state.<\/p>

\r\nIt is wider in the southwest sector, near the towns of Ras el-Bayada and Majdal Zoun, and narrows to about 6 kilometers in the southeast, opposite the Israeli city of Metula.<\/p>

\r\nThe northern line of the security zone passes through elevated positions, such as the Beaufort and Ali al-Taher mountain ranges, and includes Lebanese villages like Bint Jbeil, Beit Lif, and Kfarkela.<\/p>

\r\nThere is also a naval security zone in the adjacent waters of the Mediterranean Sea.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThis disclosure comes shortly after the announcement of an agreement between the United States and Iran, which provides for the immediate and permanent end of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon.<\/p>

\r\nHowever, Israel maintains its policy of an indefinite presence in security zones in Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza to protect its border communities, as stated by Defense Minister Israel Katz.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThe action reinforces Israel’s determination to dismantle all terrorist infrastructure in the region, even in the face of external pressure.
