Crusaders, Sultans, Israel – Beaufort Castle's 900-Year War Continues | Hezbollah | Lebanon | VERTEX

Описание: Israeli forces have once again seized Beaufort Castle, the medieval fortress overlooking southern Lebanon's Litani River valley. The stronghold, first captured by Crusader King Fulk of Jerusalem in 1139 and later besieged by Saladin's forces, has spent nearly nine centuries at the centre of regional conflicts. From Crusaders and Ayyubids to the PLO and Israeli forces, successive powers have fought for control of the fortress because of its commanding strategic position. Now, amid renewed fighting in southern Lebanon, Beaufort Castle has returned to the frontline, linking today's conflict with centuries of military history.
