Israeli Army Captures Beaufort Castle in Southern Lebanon

Beirut. The Israeli army has taken control of the historic and strategically important Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has described this as a 'decisive change' in the military campaign against Hezbollah. This success has come as Israeli ground forces have advanced far beyond their initial border line of the Litani River, reaching deep into Lebanese territory.

Britain, France, and Germany have strongly criticized Israel's latest military operation and escalation of conflict. Meanwhile, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have warned residents of a large area in southern Lebanon to evacuate to safe places immediately.
