The Christian quarter in south Lebanon's Tyre, the last pocket of the coastal city spared from Israeli threats, was emptied out on Tuesday after an unprecedented warning for the city's residents.

What are we supposed to do?" he added, saying that he would go to his sister's home in Beirut "for a few days to see what happens".
