Lebanese media outlets report that the IDF is carrying out controlled explosions near the village of Deir Mimas and the Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon, within the area designated as Israel's security zone. According to the reports, the demolition of structures in this area has become a routine activity in recent days.

The location is close to the Beaufort Castle, a historic site on a hilltop with strategic views over the region. The IDF has not commented on the current reports.

As The Zioneer has covered since mid-June, the IDF has been conducting controlled demolitions, artillery fire, and other operational activities in multiple villages across southern Lebanon, including Yohmor al-Shaqif, Deir Siryan, Al-Tiri, Tebnit, Hadatha, Zoutar, and Aita al-Jabal. The operations are part of ongoing Israeli security activity in the area following the 2023–2024 war with Hezbollah.
