IDF Soldier Killed by Hezbollah Drone as Troops Capture Beaufort Castle (May 31, 0633 UTC, 0933 Israel) (Morning Edition)
An IDF soldier was killed and four wounded by a Hezbollah explosive drone in southern Lebanon, while Israeli forces captured the strategic Beaufort Castle and advanced within 5 km of Nabatieh. Hezbollah launched rocket barrages at Kiryat Shmona and other northern Israeli communities, prompting school closures. The US struck a ship breaching the blockade near Iran, and the US-Iran deal remains unresolved with new US demands.
