Three media workers were killed and three others injured in an Israeli airstrike on a residence housing journalists in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese Health Ministry said on Friday.

The pro-Iran Al Mayadeen TV reported that the journalists, a cameraman and a technician linked to the broadcaster were killed in an Israeli attack early Friday.

This happened in a residence in the Hasbiyya town in southern Lebanon.

The Hezbollah mouthpiece TV Al Manar said a cameraman working for it was also killed in the strike.

Al Mayadeen head Ghassan Ben Jeddou held Israel fully responsible for what he said was a “war crime.’’
