Overview
- The Jezzine attack, which hit a moving car Saturday, killed Al‑Manar’s Ali Shaib and Al‑Mayadeen’s Fatima and Mohammed Ftouni, according to their networks.
- Israel’s military said it targeted Shaib as a Hezbollah intelligence operative who hid behind a press vest, offered no public evidence, and Hezbollah denied the claim.
- Lebanon’s president condemned a flagrant breach of international law, and crowds later held protests and funerals for the journalists in Beirut.
- Separate strikes over the same period hit rescue and medical teams in the south, with the World Health Organization reporting nine paramedics killed that day and 51 health‑worker deaths since early March.
- On Monday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered an expanded security zone in southern Lebanon, a step seen as signaling further escalation as cross‑border fire continues.
