While Israel labeled one victim a “terrorist,” Lebanon’s presidency condemned the attack as a “blatant crime” violating international law. The Committee to Protect Journalists is investigating, noting a disturbing pattern of accusations against media workers without credible evidence. Three journalists were killed in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon, sparking outrage from Iran and press watchdogs.
