Attacks in Lebanon

Three journalists affiliated with the Hezbollah group's television networks, such as Al Mayadeen and Al-Manar, were killed today and others were injured in an Israeli airstrike at their workplace in Hasbaya, southern Lebanon.

The attack hit a group of small buildings where around 18 journalists from at least 7 news networks - including Al Jazeera, Sky News Arabia and the Turkish network TRT - were temporarily housed during the conflict. In the parking lot of the center there were several vehicles with the visible sign "Press" at the time of the attack, writes the British network The Guardian.

Al-Manar network operator Wissam Qassem, Al Mayadeen network journalist Ghassan Najjar, and TV technician Mohammad Reda tragically lost their lives in the attack. Al-Manar is the main news network of the Hezbollah group, while Al Mayadeen, although pro-Hezbollah, cannot be considered a target for Israel's military, observers say.

According to international law, journalists are considered civilians and their deliberate targeting is considered a war crime. War crimes are accepted to be avoided in conflict by all UN states. The Lebanese Minister of Information, Ziad Makary, today called the attack a serious crime. Since the start of Israel's offensive in Lebanon, 12 journalists have died there, six of them while on duty.

The Israeli attack on Lebanon has cost the life of Reuters journalist Issam Abdallah, the investigation of which revealed that it was a deliberate attack by an Israeli tank. Today's attack happened around 4 am.

"The air attack happened when we were sleeping. I didn't hear the sound of the explosion, but only the sound of the rocket coming before it," said journalist Darine El Helwe, of the Sky News Arabia network, who was there at the time of the event.

The group of journalists stayed in Hasbaya for a month as they went down to the south during the day to cover the events of the brutal war. El Helwe added that the attack will have serious psychological consequences for journalists, who previously worked in southeast Lebanon under the assumption that they would not be hit by Israeli missiles.

She said: "Israel does not want the real pictures and information of the war to be published. They targeted a group of journalists who can hit them during the day as they recognize their vehicles. But why do this at night, while they were sleeping?"

On Wednesday, Israeli artillery also hit an office of the Al Mayadeen network south of the capital Beirut, while two of its journalists were killed a year ago while reporting on Israeli attacks in the south of the country.

At least 125 journalists have been killed by the Israeli military since the start of the war in Gaza, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.
