If they end up needing a Plan B for exfiltration, the 10 miles to the coast or 20 miles north to Turkey will probably look a lot more attractive than 50 miles south to Lebanon. Coastal options include local boats that can take them to Cyprus, up to Turkey, or meet up with a spec ops submarine. Turkey seems likely to be willing to help, if they don't have to do so publicly.

If the coast is only ten miles, yeah. But how many people would be needed to do the raid in the first place? A large enough party to overcome the garrison might not get out on a sub.
