Steve Sweeney, a British journalist and Lebanon bureau chief for the Russian state broadcaster Russia Today (RT), narrowly survived an alleged targeted Israeli airstrike in Southern Lebanon. He was reporting on the Al-Qasmiya Bridge over the Litani River with his cameraman on Thursday, 19 March when an explosion erupted, leaving both media workers with shrapnel injuries.
The video appears to show a missile landed just meters away from where Sweeney was reporting. RT said Sweeney and his cameraman 'miraculously survived' what the outlet described as a targeted airstrike.
