Israeli airstrike kills Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil
Rescue workers say a Lebanese journalist was killed in an Israeli airstrike in southern Lebanon.
The daily Al-Akhbar newspaper says its reporter Amal Khalil was killed on Wednesday in the southern village of al-Tiri.
Khalil had been covering the Israel-Hezbollah war, which resumed in early March, in the shadow of the U.S.-Israeli war in Iran.
Earlier on Wednesday, Reporters Without Borders had called on the international community to pressure the Israeli army to allow the rescue of Khalil and others who were in the house.
However, rescuers say her body was only retrieved hours later from the rubble.
