Othman Marks ISF Founding Anniversary Vows to Bring Institution to International Levels
Internal Security Forces chief Maj. Gen. Imad Othman pledged on Friday to improve Lebanon's security institution to become one of the leading at the international level.
Othman's comments came in an address he gave on Friday marking the 156th founding anniversary of the ISF, under the patronage of President Michel Aoun at the late Brigadier General Wissam al-Hassan's Barracks in Dbayieh.
Othman assured that the ISF's missions cover all Lebanese territories, “our missions do not only start at the border villages nor do they end in narrow streets of the city.”
“We are a power of law and protection that represent the State's credibility. We ensure security to the entire state institutions,” he added.
Referring to the situation in the region and how it affects the country, Othman said: “The prevailing circumstances have forced us to exert more efforts. In 2018, we will implement a strategy that upgrades our gear and trains our elements to become one of the leading security institutions worldwide.”
