Documenting the use of white phosphorus by Israel on civilian areas in Khiam - south lebanon.

📽️ Ces dernières semaines, le terme « chiites » revient sans cesse dans l’actualité, à mesure que la guerre régionale, qui concerne à la fois l’Iran et le Liban, continue d’évoluer. Mais de quoi parle-t-on vraiment ? Qui sont les chiites, et que recouvre ce mot souvent invoqué, rarement expliqué ? Notre co-rédacteur en chef, Elie Fayad, vous explique ⤵️

The Israeli army is committing war crime after war crime with no consequences. Report from Burj Rahal.

Revising the footage of the attack on our dear colleagues and friends Steve and Ali: The strike was carried out by an american made GBU-38, carrying a MK-82 500 pounds warhead with 200 pounds of explosives and a 300 pounds of forged steel warhead that was made in purpose to be transformed to thousands of shrapnels upon impact. What save both of them was a combination of good luck, fast reaction from Steve as an experienced war reporter wearing body armor (should have been wearing his helmet), and the fact that the bomb missed the concrete by some 50 cm and went inside the previous hole and exploded under the bridge, which saved the journalists from the shrapnels and the direct shock wave.

It looks like Steve and his crew were targetted with an M982 Excalibur, US GPS-guided, 155mm extended-range artillery shell. They strike with precision within 4 meters at ranges over 40 km.

Lebanese Ministry of Health: 1,001 people killed and 2,584 people wounded in Israeli attacks since March 2nd.
