Adraee: We have taken control of Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon, and Hezbollah’s strongholds are collapsing before our soldiers.

The Israeli army’s Arabic-language spokesman, Avichay Adraee, wrote on his account on the X platform:

"Between the promises of slogans and the reality on the ground... here is the definitive news. Our soldiers, standing atop Beaufort Castle, are writing a new chapter of pride. Glory is not built by speeches, but by the sound of soldiers’ footsteps."

"Taking control of Beaufort Castle is not merely a military achievement; it is a new shattering of the symbolism of the arrogance of the terrorist Hezbollah, which threatened us with weakness, only for its strongholds to crumble under our blows."
