Human Rights Watch's report indicates that an Israeli airstrike in Lebanon targeting journalists in October likely constitutes a deliberate attack on civilians, equating to a potential war crime.
The rights organization emphasized that the Israeli military should have been aware of the journalists' presence during the airstrike, raising serious legal and ethical questions about the attack.
Richard Weir of Human Rights Watch criticized the U.S. for its role, stating that the use of U.S.-made weaponry in attacks on civilians reflects poorly on America’s role in international law.
The incident highlights the concerning practice of the U.S. supplying arms to Israel, which may contribute to unlawful military operations against non-combatants, urging a reevaluation of arms transfers.
