🇬🇧🇮🇱🇱🇧 The UK paper The Telegraph, citing exclusively anonymous
sources, ran an article on Sunday with no named author claiming Hezbollah
is "storing missiles and explosives at Lebanon's main airport."

The report reads like pure propaganda and Israel swiftly shared the report
on their official X account to provide a pretext for blowing the airport
up.

The Air Transport Union in Lebanon denied the report and invited foreign
media outlets to tour the airport "with their camera crews and verify for
themselves."

They derided The Telegraph's report as an "incitement to kill us."

🇱🇧🇬🇧🇮🇱 Lebanese officials hosted foreign diplomats and journalists
for a tour of the Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport on Monday in an
effort to counter claims from The Telegraph that Hezbollah was storing
"huge quantities of Iranian weapons, missiles, and explosives" inside the
facility.

🇱🇧🇬🇧🇮🇱 The Telegraph stealth-edited their report claiming Hezbollah
is storing "huge quantities" of missiles and weapons at Beirut's main
civilian airport to change the source of a quote from a security official
at the "International Air Transport Association" to a security official at
"a major international aviation body."

Despite changing their "source," they kept the quote the same and offered
no explanation for the change!

Lebanon is now threatening to sue The Telegraph over the "false" claims
they made in their report.

No wonder no one was willing to sign their name onto this propaganda piece!

It's becoming clearer by the day that The Telegraph spread these deliberate
lies to provide cover for Israel to bomb Lebanon's main civilian airport
and commit a war crime!
