Israeli airstrike hits near TV crew in southern Lebanon
A video shows an Israeli airstrike hitting near a Lebanese television crew in southern Lebanon, injuring a reporter and cameraman as they were preparing to go on air.
The incident happened Sunday in the city of Nabatieh, where Al-Manar correspondent Ali Shuaib and cameraman Mohammad Barjawi were preparing a report for the channel’s evening broadcast.
Footage shows Shuaib standing in front of the camera when a loud aircraft noise is heard overhead, followed by a powerful strike nearby. The video is then engulfed by a bright flash as debris falls around the area.
Lebanon’s state news agency said an Israeli drone struck close to the crew. Shuaib and Barjawi were taken to a hospital for treatment.
Al-Manar later said both men were in good condition and had been released after medical examinations. The channel said they are expected to resume work soon.
The strike came hours after earlier Israeli attacks in the Nabatieh area killed and injured several people, according to Lebanese media.
