Hezbollah warns Israeli residents to evacuate towns within five kilometres of the border, according to Al Jazeera.

Hezbollah's warning for Israeli residents to evacuate near the border signals escalating tensions in the region, which could have implications for risk assets and safe havens. The situation may drive investors to seek refuge in gold and certain currencies like the JPY and CHF, while potentially impacting energy markets, particularly WTI prices. This could be a precursor to more significant geopolitical developments that investors need to monitor closely.
