The Israeli military claims its forces have achieved operational control of the Beaufort Ridge area in southern Lebanon, killing what it claims were two armed individuals in a combined air and ground attack in recent days, Al Jazeera reports.

In a post on X, it said forces from the Golani Brigade’s divisional combat team, operating under the 36th Division, identified the individuals approximately 150 metres away during an assault on the ridge adjacent to Beaufort Fortress.
