Israeli attacks on journalists constitute 'war crimes', Lebanese Prime Minister says
Lebanon’s Prime Minister has slammed Israel’s targeting of journalists, describing them as a systematic pattern of attacks in southern Lebanon.
Nawaf Salam said that targeting journalists, obstructing rescue teams from reaching them and striking the same locations again after their arrival constitutes "clear war crimes".
He noted that such attacks on reporters while they are carrying out their professional duties are no longer isolated incidents in the area, but have turned into a "documented pattern" that violates international laws and norms
Salam's remarks come after an Israeli strike killed Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil.
