In September 1997, a force of 16 soldiers from the elite naval commando unit Shayetet 13 was ambushed by fighters from local militant groups Hezbollah and Amal while on a mission deep in Lebanon. 11 of the commandos were killed in the firefight that ensued, including force commander Lt. Col. Yossi Korakin, as well as a doctor from a rescue force dispatched to their aid.
20 years later, the IDF finally confirms Hezbollah was able to intercept intelligence, giving it advance knowledge of naval commando operation deep inside Lebanon.
A documentary by Omri Assenheim aired on the investigative journalism TV show Uvda.
