I urge everyone to watch this report by Channel 4 News about Israel’s killing of Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil.
“Under international humanitarian law, journalists are afforded the same protection as civilians… If that journalist has a particular sympathy with a particular cause, that doesn’t mean that protection is removed…
… the IDF said the incident is under review. Don’t hold your breath…”
Providing the necessary context and not taking Israel’s claims at face value.
This is how every journalist should be reporting.
The body of the Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil was found by rescuers after several hours of digging in the rubble after an Israeli strike. She is the fourth journalist to have been killed by Israeli forces in seven weeks. This is why the word ‘journacide’ is now being used.
Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil has been confirmed killed by Israel.
Let's be clear: they targeted her, they launched a missile at her, and they prevented emergency services from reaching her.
They are doing to Lebanon's journalists what they did to Gaza's.
Israel’s bulldozers are wiping out civilian homes, tourist sites, and hotels in Naqoura, South Lebanon.
Not military targets.
South Lebanon is being erased — like Gaza before it.
This is an American-backed, American-funded genocide.
