The Day After 700 Tons of Explosives: Beaufort Ridge Changed Color | Footage

The IDF destroyed about 700 tons of explosives from Hezbollah tunnels near the Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon, in response to the launch of an explosive drone toward an engineering vehicle. The intense blast was visible in the area, and aerial footage shows the change in the ridge. The IDF stated that the network served as a central terrorist headquarters of the 'Badr' unit, funded by Iran, and was established about six kilometers from Metula.

On the night between Thursday and Friday, the IDF destroyed Hezbollah tunnels near the Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon using about 700 tons of explosives. The blast was carried out in response to Hezbollah's launch of an explosive drone toward an IDF engineering vehicle, which constituted a violation of the ceasefire. Residents in the Galilee Panhandle were asked to leave windows open for fear they would break. The IDF stated that the network served as a central command complex for the 'Badr' unit, funded and planned by the Iranian terror regime, and was established about six kilometers from Metula. From it, dozens of UAVs, explosive drones, and anti-tank missiles were launched. The IDF prepared the network for destruction in recent weeks, and after completing the operational conditions, it was decided to destroy it. On July 13, one tunnel was destroyed, and after the blast, most of the network was destroyed. A few additional routes remain under surveillance.
