The Israeli army, which has been engaged in controlled clashes with Hezbollah on the Lebanon-Israel border since October 8, 2023, detonated pagers and radios used by Hezbollah on September 17-18, and began launching airstrikes on the Bekaa and Baalbek regions as well as southern Lebanese cities on September 23.

On September 30, the Israeli army announced that it had begun limited and intensive ground attacks targeting Hezbollah's infrastructure in southern Lebanon. These developments triggered a major wave of migration in the country. So far, around 200,000 Lebanese have fled to the north of the country and to Syria.
