An Israeli strike that killed 3 Lebanese journalists was most likely deliberate, watchdog says
An international human rights group says an Israeli airstrike that killed three journalists and wounded others in Lebanon last month was most likely a deliberate attack on civilians and an apparent war crime. The Oct. 25 airstrike killed three journalists as they slept at a guesthouse in southeast Lebanon in one of the deadliest attacks on the media since the Israel-Hezbollah war began 13 months ago. Human Rights Watch determined that Israeli forces carried out the attack using an air-dropped bomb equipped with a U.S.-produced Joint Direct Attack Munition, or JDAM, guidance kit. The group said the U.S. government should suspend weapons transfers to Israel.
