An Israeli strike in the Jezzine area killed Al-Manar correspondent Ali Shoeib and Al-Mayadeen reporter Fatima Ftouni; Al Jazeera reported that her brother and colleague Mohammed was also killed. Israel said Shoeib was a Hezbollah intelligence operative, without providing evidence, and Lebanon's president called the strike a blatant crime.

Why it matters

The WHO said nine paramedics were also killed in southern Lebanon the same day, as the toll among journalists and rescue workers climbed during Israel's ground advance.
