Footage released
The Islamic Resistance released footage of an operation carried out on May
27, showing an Ababil attack drone striking an Israeli Iron Dome launcher
at the Jal al-Alam site in northern occupied Palestine.
The Resistance also released footage of an operation on May 31 targeting a
gathering of Israeli soldiers near the historic Beaufort Castle in southern
Lebanon with an Ababil attack drone.
The footage comes alongside a statement released today
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/a-photo-op--iof-fail-to-secure-foothold-at-beaufort-castle>
in which Hezbollah offered a detailed account of the battle for Beaufort
Castle, also known as al-Shaqif fortress, following Israeli attempts to
present the operation as a major battlefield achievement.
According to the statement, Israeli forces conducted more than five days of
intensive airstrikes and artillery shelling before an infantry unit
conducted a covert night infiltration into the eastern sector of the
fortress
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/european-leaders-condemn-israeli-incursion-reaching-al-shaqi>
under smoke cover, briefly photographed the site, which contained no
Hezbollah military positions, and subsequently withdrew.
The resistance stressed that Israeli forces have since failed to
consolidate any position in the area and remain deployed below the castle,
where they continue to come under attritional operations.
New IOF casualty
Israeli media confirmed on Monday that one soldier from the Golani Brigade was
killed
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/golani-soldier-killed--3-injured--incl--1-critical--in-south>
and five others wounded, one in critical condition, in a resistance
operation in southern Lebanon.
Separately, Israeli *Army Radio* reported Monday afternoon that an
explosive-laden drone detonated inside a military site in Ras al-Naqura in
western al-Jalil. Israeli enemy army radio also reported that the 146th
Division, deployed near al-Bayyadah, has been withdrawn and replaced by the
91st Division.
The killing marks the third consecutive day of Israeli soldier fatalities
in southern Lebanon. On Sunday, Israeli *Army Radio* confirmed the death of
a soldier from the Givati reconnaissance unit and the wounding of four
others after a drone struck in the Zawtar al-Sharqiya area. Separately,
Israeli media reported six casualties
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/hezbollah-s-strikes-hit-northern-israeli-base--6-injured--3>,
three of them in serious condition, following drone strikes on a military
base in Beit Hillel in the Marj Ibn Amer area.
Sirens sound across al-Jalil
Air raid sirens
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/hezbollah-expands-strikes-as-sirens-sound-in-northern-palest>
have been sounding across northern occupied Palestine since the early
morning hours, covering settlements in the Upper al-Jalil, Western
al-Jalil, al-Jalil Panhandle, and as far south as Karmiel and Safad.
Israeli media on Monday noted that for the second time in 48 hours,
Hezbollah conducted night drone operations against Israeli forces,
inflicting deaths and injuries.
Israeli *Channel 12* reported that Hezbollah has begun using drones
equipped with thermal-imaging cameras to track Israeli soldiers at night
before striking them, an evolution in tactics that Israeli military
assessments say ground operation expansions have failed to counter.
