Previous evacuation orders for Tyre had excluded the Christian quarter. Israel warned that the Christian quarter could be subject to evacuation orders if Hezbollah remained present. Israel has issued repeated evacuation orders across Lebanon, including more than 100 villages and towns in the south and east, and the entirety of Beirut’s southern suburbs. Hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced in Lebanon due to these orders. According to euronews.com, thousands of residents fled Tyre on 9 June 2026, with long queues of vehicles heading north, and cars loaded with mattresses, luggage, household items, and pets clogged the coastal highway near Tyre. According to bluesky, more than 12 civilians were killed in Israeli strikes over the past 24 hours in Tyre, including emergency responders near a medical site. According to amnesty.org.uk, less than 100 hours after fighting escalated in Lebanon, more than 300,000 people had been displaced across the country.
