Wounded Lebanese journalist recounts hours of agony when Israeli strike killed colleague
A Lebanese journalist wounded in an Israeli airstrike that killed her colleague describes hours of agony as they waited for help. Zeinab Faraj, a freelance photographer, was with Amal Khalil, a correspondent for Al-Akhbar, when their car was hit Wednesday. They were covering the post-ceasefire situation in southern Lebanon. Faraj says they took shelter after a first strike, but a second hit Khalil’s car. Faraj managed to find refuge in a shop. A third strike later hit their shelter, trapping Khalil. Rescue teams eventually evacuated Faraj, but Khalil was found dead. Faraj believes Khalil could have survived with faster help.
