Al-Jamaa al-Islamiya said Israeli forces seized its official Atwi Atwi from his Hasbaiyya home and transferred him to an unknown location. The group condemned the infiltration and accused Israel of abducting a member during a cross-border raid in southern Lebanon. The Israeli military said recent intelligence prompted a targeted raid that apprehended a senior terrorist, who was transferred to Israeli territory for questioning, and accused al-Jamaa al-Islamiya of attacks on northern Israel. Lebanon's state news agency reported troops entered around 4am before abducting Atwi, a former mayor of Hibbariyeh. Lebanon accuses Israel of holding several citizens since the start of hostilities, while Israeli operations and occupation of strategic points in southern Lebanon have continued despite a November 2024 ceasefire intended to end fighting with Hezbollah.
