Al Mayadeen's correspondent in South Lebanon, Farah Omar, alongside photojournalist Rabih Me'mari, were martyred today by an Israeli bombing that deliberately targeted them after they had just finished their live broadcast.

Our beloved colleagues consistently reported on Israeli atrocities in southern Lebanon despite Israeli threats. These two journalists were united in a bond forged by their dedication, bravery, and, ultimately, their sacrifice.

They have ascended as two new martyrs, true heroes, performing their journalistic duties to expose the Israeli occupation's crimes during the brutal Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and southern Lebanon.

Who is Rabih Me'mari ?

Rabih Me'mari, 44, was born on January 1, 1979, and hails from Tripoli, northern Lebanon.

Rabih was married to Manal Jaafar, who also works at Al Mayadeen Media Network, with whom he has two children, Rami (4) and Maria (2).

Me'mari joined Al Mayadeen shortly after its launch in July 2012 as a photojournalist, with over 20 years of experience in the field.

Known for his professional commitment and mastery of photography, he was part of Al Mayadeen's most important and tense coverages.

He accompanied Al Mayadeen's team from the beginning of the channel's coverage of events in southern Lebanon, returning to Beirut on rotation with his colleagues. However, he insisted on returning to Southern Lebanon to perform his duty on the frontlines until he was martyred today while covering the Israeli aggression in South Lebanon.
