Hezbollah called on the Lebanese Ministry of Information, National Media Council, and the Lebanese judicial and security agencies to take the necessary legal measures against a number of foreign media outlets operating in Lebanon.
In a statement by the party’s Media Relations Department, Monday, it explained that the Israeli occupation army organized a tour in one of the southern villages for a number of journalists working for the BBC, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, The Telegraph, Fox News, Reuters, the New York Times, and other foreign media outlets.
Hezbollah considered these media outlets which “insolently sent press teams that entered one of the southern villages accompanied by the occupation army,” as “violating the sanctity of Lebanese territory, Lebanese sovereignty, and applicable Lebanese laws.”
The party stressed its “our condemnation of this dangerous behavior and unacceptable step, and we reiterate our demand that the competent authorities take the necessary legal and political measures” against these outlets.
The Lebanese authorities announced at the end of last week the arrest of American journalist named Joshua Tartakovsky, who came to cover the events of the war in Lebanon, on charges of spying for the occupation, and he was arrested while he was wandering in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
Media outlets confirmed that Tartakovsky arrived in Lebanon about two weeks before his arrest, under the guise of a journalist, and an Israeli passport was found upon him after he was searched, and after his arrest, he was deported from Lebanon to the United States according to Quds Press.
Since September 23, the Israeli occupation forces expanded the scope of the genocide from Gaza to include several areas of Lebanon, including the capital Beirut, through air strikes of unprecedented violence and intensity, and they also began a ground incursions into the south, disregarding international warnings and UN resolutions.
