“More than 1.5 million people remain displaced despite a ceasefire”
DISPUTED
The claim states 'more than 1.5 million' remain displaced. However, evidence from a web search mentions 'more than 1 million' displaced, while OCHA reports 570,000 are already returning. There is a discrepancy in the total number of displaced persons between the claim and the provided evidence.

“Israel has ordered residents of around 80 towns in the south not to go back home”
MISLEADING
The claim specifies 'around 80 towns'. However, the evidence provided mentions warnings for '11 southern Lebanon towns', 'more than 20 towns', and 'various southern Lebanese villages'. None of the sources confirm the specific number of 80 towns, making the claim's specific figure unsupported and potentially exaggerated based on the available evidence.
