Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati has condemned the Israeli attack that has killed two Al Mayadeen TV employees in southern Lebanon and a number of civilians.

“This attack proves once again that there are no limits to Israeli crime, and that its goal is to silence the media that exposes its crimes and attacks,” Mikati said as quoted in a post by broadcaster NBN Lebanon.

“We extend our condolences to the Al-Mayadeen family and the families of the two media martyrs, asking God to shower them with His mercy and grant their families patience and solace.”
