Dahiyeh, Beirut, Lebanon

Netanyahu instructed the military to strike 'terrorist targets' in Beirut's Dahiyeh district, citing repeated Hezbollah ceasefire violations, and the army later told residents to leave, saying it would hit Dahiyeh if Hezbollah kept firing rockets at Israeli towns. Iran's central military command warned residents of northern Israel to flee if Beirut was attacked.

Why it matters

Trump intervened within hours and said no Israeli troops would go to Beirut, but Israel struck Dahiyeh on June 7 and Iran answered with its first missile attack on Israel since April.
