Ottawa considers contingency plans to evacuate Canadians from Lebanon, advises them to leave
KHIAM, LEBANON - JUNE 25: Smoke rises from an Israeli strike against a Hezbollah target on June 25, 2024 in Khiam, Lebanon. Hezbollah and the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have been trading cross-border fire since the October 7 attacks, with the conflict escalating in May when the group launched a missile-carrying drone against Israel for the first time. The conflict intensified in June when Hezbollah fired hundreds of rockets and drones at Israeli military sites following the killing of senior commander Taleb Abdullah. This marked the largest assault since October 8. The last significant conflict between Israel and Hezbollah occurred in 2006, lasting 34 days and resulting in a stalemate.
