Soon after the invasion, Israel appointed military governors in the main southern towns, bypassing the administration of the Lebanese state. Residents of Tyre and Sidon were asked to register for new identification papers, issued by Israel. A questionnaire circulated to the villages of the south, asking for "the names, ages, occupation, religious/political affiliation of every inhabitant of the village, including questions about relatives living abroad"
"To consolidate their bureaucratic hold on the South, the Israelis undertook extensive road-building works, started a postal service between the South and Israel, and connected Lebanese telephones near the Israeli border into the Israeli system"
