Netanyahu stated that Israeli forces have expanded their military movements northward, noting that they crossed the Litani River and seized control of new areas, including the Beaufort heights.
He added that the Israeli army continues to execute military operations across multiple fronts in Lebanon, Syria, and the Gaza Strip.
Netanyahu further claimed, "We have killed 700 Hezbollah operatives in this month of May alone, and the number of the group's casualties since last March has reached 8,000."
The occupation's Prime Minister emphasized that his country is adopting what he described as a "proactive approach" in dealing with security threats, pointing to the continuation of military operations and the implementation of measures aimed at reinforcing border security.
Netanyahu considered his forces' control over Beaufort Castle (Qal'at al-Shaqif) in southern Lebanon to represent a "decisive turning point" in the offensive against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
He added, "The control over Beaufort Castle is a decisive turning point... We have broken the barrier of fear, and we are operating on all fronts—in Syria, Gaza, and Lebanon."
