Lebanese official calls on reporters to verify ‘falsity’ of Telegraph article
The UK newspaper Telegraph’s recent article about Hezbollah storing weapons at Beirut’s international airport lacks “credibility”, says Ziad T Makary, Lebanon’s information minister.
“Out of concern for the security of the country and the safety of Lebanese citizens, residents and visitors, and based on the fact that the article contradicts the principles and ethics of journalism, and because its goals are not innocent, we address all media outlets and hope they will not be satisfied with denouncing the article, but rather in exposing its intentions behind its publication in these circumstances.”
Makary urged reporters to come to the Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport tomorrow morning to “verify first-hand the falsity of the allegations contained in the Telegraph newspaper”.
Lol the UK Telegraph isn't a newspaper, it's a sensationalist tabloid.
Israeli army says deadly strike on UN facility targeted Palestinian fighters
The Israeli army maintains this was a precise strike that hit Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad infrastructure, from which the two groups had been operating. It claims that prior to the bombing, “precautionary measures were taken to reduce the risk of harming civilians”.
Throughout the entirety of this conflict, the Israeli military has targeted not only the facilities of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), but its employees as well. A total 193 have been killed in Israeli attacks.
The Israeli army and political apparatus alike have maintained that UNRWA is a “terrorist organisation” and must be replaced in the Gaza Strip.
Every male 14 years and older is a Palestinian fighter according to the IDF. Although they'll kill and arrest 12 year olds as well.
Al-Mawasi ‘safe zone’ surrounded by Israeli tanks
Residents say Israeli tanks advanced to the edge of the al-Mawasi displaced persons’ camp – deemed a “safe zone” by Israel’s army – in the northwest of Rafah city.
On Friday, Israeli forces launched an assault on a tent camp in al-Mawasi near the International Committee of the Red Cross base, killing at least 25 people and wounding 50 others.
Witnesses said Israeli troops fired a second volley that killed people who came out of their tents after the first attack.
Israeli forces ordered Palestinians in southern Gaza to flee to al-Mawasi in May, telling residents it was the only “safe area” after it launched its much-condemned invasion of Rafah.
