AFP photographer Christina Assi and AFP video journalist Dylan Collins were working in the area. Both were taken to a hospital in Tyre for treatment. “We send our deepest condolences to our friends at Reuters for the loss of Issam and we are all pulling for our injured colleagues in hospital.”AFP correspondents had reported shelling targeting the villages of Dhayra, Alma al-Shaab and Adaysseh, with smoke billowing from the area.
An Israeli spokesperson said later on X, formerly Twitter, that a remote-operated army aircraft was striking Hezbollah targets. Lebanon and Israel are still technically at war, and UN peacekeepers have been deployed in Lebanon since 1978.
