Lebanon’s Al-Jadeed television channel reported that Syrian soldiers opened fire on a car carrying its crew on the Lebanese side of the frontier, in the northern Lebanese region of Wadi Khaled. They shot dead a cameraman Ali Shaaban.
Reuters reported that Shaaban’s colleague Hussein Khreiss said the shooting occurred after the crew had explained to the soldiers what they were doing.
