The IDF released footage from the Beaufort Castle area in southern Lebanon showing Hezbollah weapons seized by ground forces, including anti-aircraft machine guns and a panoramic view of Israeli communities visible from the strategic ridge, a military source confirmed.
The footage, released Saturday evening, shows the aftermath of IDF operations at Beaufort Castle, a strategic ridge in southern Lebanon that overlooks Israeli communities in the Galilee panhandle. The cache includes anti-aircraft machine guns, among other weapons, according to the military source.
The video also includes a panoramic shot taken from the castle, illustrating the proximity of Israeli towns to the ridge — a vantage point Hezbollah used for years. The Beaufort area has been a focal point of IDF ground operations since the ground maneuver began in early June.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Saturday, the IDF posted similar footage from Beaufort showing Hezbollah spoils, including the same types of anti-aircraft machine guns. The new release adds a wider view of the captured weapons and the panoramic perspective.
The IDF has not stated whether further weapons were seized since the earlier post, and casualty figures for the operation were not provided.
