US Lawmakers Demand Accountability for Attacks on Journalists in Israel

Washington, DC – American journalist Dylan Collins is demanding accountability for the 2023 Israeli double-tap strike in south Lebanon that injured him and killed Reuters reporter Issam Abdallah, noting that Israel has failed to provide adequate answers. Supported by press freedom advocates and U.S. legislators, Collins seeks clarity on the military orders behind the attack, which wounded six journalists. Despite claims of an investigation, no evidence has been presented, and key witnesses were not contacted. Collins criticized the U.S. government’s inaction, stating that both the Biden and Trump administrations have not acknowledged the wounding of an American citizen and have remained silent for two years.
