ليس ضابطاً في الكلية البحرية… من هو عماد أمهز المختطف في عملية الكومندوز؟

Not a Naval Academy Officer: Who is Imad Amhaz, the Kidnapped in the Commando Operation?

The commando operation carried out by the Israeli army in the Batroun area has stirred considerable controversy in both local and international media, following the kidnapping of a Lebanese individual claimed by Israel to be one of Hezbollah's leaders. Amidst circulating reports suggesting he was an officer at the naval academy, exclusive sources for “Lebanon Debate” confirmed that the young man is Imad Amhaz, currently undergoing captain training at the maritime sciences school operated by the Ministry of Public Works and Transport in Batroun.

According to information, the Israeli commando unit stormed the chalet rented by Amhaz adjacent to the maritime school, where he was present with friends. They left everyone behind, taking him alone and heading towards the sea, where a boat awaited them on the shore.

On the other hand, Hezbollah sources denied that the kidnapped individual is one of the party's leaders, highlighting the ambiguous nature of the operation and its political implications.
