Israeli naval commandos conducted a raid in northern Lebanon yesterday, where they captured one person, according to Lebanese journalist Hasan Illaik.

More than 25 soldiers arrived on the coast of Batroun, south of Tripoli, and raided a chalet near the beach. One Lebanese person, who was alone, was taken from the area, and the special forces left the area via speedboats, the report says.

Illaik shares surveillance camera footage purportedly from the incident. It shows a group of soldiers taking a detained person with them.

The journalist says Lebanese security officials are investigating the incident.
