Al Mayadeen TV channel confirms cameraman killed in Israeli strike in south Lebanon

Pan-Arab TV channel Al Mayadeen says its cameraman was killed in an Israeli air strike on a residence housing journalists in southern Lebanon’s Hasbaiyya town overnight.  Two other journalists were also reported killed in the attack that appears to have targeted the media workers.

The killing comes just two days after Israel carried out an air strike on an office belonging to Al Mayadeen, which is politically allied with Hezbollah and is based in Beirut.

“Al Mayadeen holds the Israeli occupation accountable for the attack on a known media office for a known media outlet,” Al Mayadeen TV said, following the Israeli strike on its office on the outskirts of Beirut’s southern suburbs.

Two Al Mayadeen journalists reporting on military activity along the southern Lebanese border with Israel were killed in an Israeli strike on November 21, 2023.

A protective vest of one of the two journalists of Pan-Arab TV network Al-Mayadeen who was killed by an Israeli strike lies on the ground at the Lebanese border village of Tair Harfa near the border with Israel.
