A message was reportedly received via WhatsApp early in the morning by a citizen in the town of Bazourieh, in the Tyre district, requesting the evacuation of residents from a four-story building near a petrol station, indicating that the building was about to be exploded. Residents evacuated the area, and both private and public schools in the town and surrounding areas closed, including the Future Generations School and the Siraj School, where end-of-year exams were scheduled to take place.
