earlier, cnn quoted news that israel's war cabinet had approved the "next phase" of the war with hezbollah. as the israeli army continues to bombard the lebanese capital beirut and southern areas, there are widespread concerns that the israeli army is about to invade lebanon on the ground.

local residents and security sources told reuters that the lebanese army had withdrawn from several positions on the southern lebanese-israeli border. another security source said the lebanese army had retreated at least five kilometers north of the border. a lebanese military spokesman did not confirm or deny the reports.

on september 30, the israeli army continued to launch attacks in the direction of lebanon.

the day before (september 30), israeli defense minister yoav galant gave a speech to israeli troops at the lebanese-israeli border and made it clear that he would launch some form of ground invasion of lebanon. at the same time, israel issued a warning, urging civilians living in the southern suburbs of beirut to evacuate as soon as possible and restricting the movement of residents of several communities in the border area.

u.s. state department spokesman matthew miller said on the 30th that the israeli government had notified the united states of "a series of operations" in lebanon, including ground operations. however, u.s. president biden continued to call for a ceasefire in lebanon that day, saying he was "reassured that they (israel) stopped their advance."

the lebanese ministry of health stated earlier on october 1 that israeli attacks killed at least 95 people and injured 172 people in the past 24 hours. as of 6 pm local time on september 30, cross-border attacks have killed 1,745 people and injured 8,767 people in lebanon since nearly a year ago.
