The Lebanese army sent reinforcements on Friday, 18 September 2026, to a newly established military position on the outskirts of Deir Mimas in the Marjayoun district of southern Lebanon, as an Israeli force advanced from the direction of Kfar Kila and Tall al-Nahas towards the site and approached army personnel. The Israeli force fired stun grenades around the Lebanese position.
Military reinforcements continue northwards
The source added that army personnel moved northwards, while military reinforcements continued to arrive in the area.
Field accounts differed over the position's status after the advance. Reports said army personnel had withdrawn from it, while the security source said the army remained in the area and insisted that the road between Deir Mimas and Burj al-Muluk remain open, as it is used by residents of the town.
