“The firing at civilians, in this instance clearly identifiable journalists, constitutes a violation of UNSCR 1701 (2006) and international law,” the Unifil report said, referring to security council resolution 1701.
He said the general staff’s fact finding and assessment mechanism, which is responsible for reviewing exceptional events, would continue to examine the incident.
Reuters’ editor-in-chief, Alessandra Galloni, has called on Israel to explain how the attack that killed Abdallah, 37, could have happened and to hold those responsible to account.
The Unifil report was sent to the United Nations in New York on 28 February and has been shared with the Lebanese and Israeli militaries, two people familiar with the matter said.
For its investigation, Unifil sent a team to visit the site on 14 October, and also received contributions from the Lebanese Armed Forces and from an unnamed witness who was present on the hill when the strikes occurred, the report said.
The group of reporters had been filming cross-border shelling from a distance in open area on a hill near the Lebanese village of Alma al-Chaab for nearly an hour before the attack.
