On Friday, an Israeli airstrike killed three journalists from Hezbollah-affiliated TV stations Al Mayadeen and Al-Manar.

    1. This is an assassination, after monitoring and tracking, with premeditation and planning, as there were 18 journalists present at the location representing seven media institutions.

    1. We hold the occupation fully responsible for this war crime, in which journalist crews, including the Al Mayadeen team, were targeted.

    1. Journalists, regardless of political affiliation, are considered civilians and intentionally directing attacks against civilians would amount to a war crime.

    1. It was the only region that still would transmit pictures of airstrikes, targeting and skirmishes. I guess Israel doesn't want these pictures to come out any more. If they wanted to target a team from the journalists, they could have targeted them on the road because they know the cars. But to target us at night while we're sleeping?
    2. The airstrike happened while we were sleeping. I don't remember hearing the sound of the explosion, I heard the sound of the rocket. I came out and found the chalet had fallen on the [journalists].
