Israel's army said on Saturday five new areas along its border with Lebanon had been declared a closed military zone, as its troops battled Hezbollah forces inside the neighboring country. 

"Following a situational assessment, the areas of Zarit, Shomera, Shtula, Netua, and Even Menachem in northern Israel will be declared a closed military zone as of 20:00 today (17:00 GMT)," an army statement said, adding: "entry to this area is prohibited".
