Reuter's photographer, Issam Abdallah, has been killed by an Israeli strike in the town of Aalma al-Chaeb, southern Lebanon.

Two other Reuters Journalists, Thaer al-Sudani and Maher Nazeh, were injured. 

A video has been posted on social media showing Al Jazeera's reporter Carmen Jokhadar lying on the ground after being injured.

The number of casualties among journalists who were present on the spot is expected to rise.

Several other journalists suffered critical injuries as a result of the Israeli strike which directly targeted them. Issam and others were wearing Press gear allowing easy identification, as they covered the unfolding events on the Lebanese-Palestinian border.
