This is the best summary I could come up with:
“The Israeli enemy launched a missile which hit a civilian car belonging to a media group which led to the martyrdom of the videographer Issam Abdallah,” the Lebanese army high command said in a statement posted on its website.
Reuters, in a statement signed by President Paul Bascobert and Editor-in-Chief Alessandra Galloni, said: "We call on the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) to conduct a thorough, swift and transparent investigation.
Israeli army spokesman Lt Col Richard Hecht earlier told a regular briefing that it was looking into the incident, adding: "We already have visuals.
State media earlier reported that Lebanon would submit a formal complaint to the U.N. Security Council on “Israel’s deliberate killing” of Abdallah.
His body, covered in a Lebanese flag, was carried in a procession attended by hundreds of mourners through his home town of Khiyam in southern Lebanon.
Nazeh said they were filming missile fire coming from the direction of Israel when one struck Abdallah as he was sitting on a low stone wall near the rest of the group.
