Capt. Ahmad Ali Shukr

Capt. Ahmad Ali Shukr, 69, is a retired Captain in the Lebanese General Security from the town of Nabi Chit in the Beqaa Valley. He disappeared on December 17, 2025, as he traveled to Zahle for what was presented to him as a meeting about a real estate purchase. Lebanese investigators have confirmed the suspicions of his family that he was abducted by the Zionist Mossad and kidnapped from Lebanon through the occupied area of Jabal al-Shaykh in Syria. 

Four individuals, including one Lebanese suspect who is currently detained, have been charged by the Lebanese military courts with crimes related to working with the Mossad in exchange for money in order to kidnap Capt. Shukr. Three suspects remain wanted, a Lebanese woman, one person with Lebanese an French citizenship, and one person with Syrian and Swedish citizenship.

His family has received no official information about his whereabouts or legal status, and neither they nor the International Committee of the Red Cross have been allowed to communicate with him. His relatives have described the case as a possible enforced disappearance and arbitrary detention under international law and have submitted an urgent request for registration and referral to the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA).
