The father of Imad Amhaz, a Lebanese man reportedly kidnapped by Israeli naval commandos, has publicly denied any affiliations his son has with political parties, emphasizing that Imad is simply a sea captain and a student at the Marsati Institute for Marine Sciences and Technology in Batroun. In an interview with Al-Jadeed, Fadel Amhaz expressed confusion over the motives behind his son's abduction and criticized Israel for its history of kidnappings and false accusations. He raised concerns about how an Israeli commando unit could operate on Lebanese territory despite the presence of international forces, specifically the German Navy, tasked with monitoring the area. Meanwhile, Israeli Army Radio confirmed that the operation had been in planning for some time, stating that the Shayetet 13 unit executed the mission without any incidents. They noted that the operation would have remained undisclosed had it not been for media exposure.
