Israel told residents of south Lebanon to stay out of a belt of territory at the border and not to approach the area of the Litani River.
This, in a move entrenching its grip over southern Lebanon despite a ceasefire in the war with Hezbollah.
The US-mediated, 10-day ceasefire took effect on Thursday largely halting the war between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah that spiralled out of the conflict between the US and Iran. However, it remains fragile.
Israeli troops are aiming to create a buffer zone to shield northern Israel from Hezbollah attack. Hezbollah says it maintains the "right to resist" Israeli occupation.
Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri said US President Donald Trump's administration was making an effort to extend the ceasefire agreed by the Israeli and Lebanese governments.
A US State Department spokesperson said Washington would host a second round of ambassador-level talks between Lebanon and Israel on Thursday.
