Israel's Netanyahu says capturing Beaufort a 'dramatic shift' in Lebanon offensive

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared Sunday that Israeli forces' capture of Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon marked a "dramatic shift" in Israel's campaign against Hezbollah in Lebanon.

"Today, we have returned to Beaufort in a different way. We have returned united, determined, and stronger than ever," Netanyahu said in a video statement.

"The capture of Beaufort is a dramatic stage and a dramatic shift in the policy we are leading. We have broken the barrier of fear. We are taking the initiative, we are operating on all fronts –- in Syria, in Gaza, in Lebanon."
