Attack that killed Reuters journalist was a war crime - rights groups

Amnesty International's Aya Majzoub said on Thursday (December 7) that Israeli strikes that killed Reuters journalist Issam Abdallah and wounded six others in south Lebanon on Oct. 13 were likely to have been a direct attack on civilians and must be investigated as a war crime. Human Rights Watch (HRW), in a separate report, said the two Israeli strikes were "an apparently deliberate attack on civilians and thus a war crime," saying those responsible must be held to account.
