Israeli troops have pushed deeper into southern Lebanon, capturing a key castle and marking their deepest move into the country in over 26 years. The Israeli military seized Beaufort Castle on Sunday, a strategic fort that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called a 'decisive shift' in their fight. This expansion goes beyond the Litani River, with troops now moving towards the Zahrani River.
