Israeli eyewitnesses challenge Israeli army's account of Majdal Shams attack

"He said he would be imprisoned if he gave such statements or information."

An Alaraby TV reporter testifies to the uncertainty surrounding a rocket strike near a stadium in Majdal Shams, in the occupied Golan Heights. According to the reporter, eyewitnesses including an Israeli paramedic, dispute the Israeli army's claim that Hezbollah fired the rocket, suggesting it might have been an Iron Dome missile. Despite these testimonies, fears of imprisonment prevent official documentation of their accounts. Journalists face restricted access as the Israeli army secures the area.

The attack killed at least 11 people, mostly children, and injured at least 19 others. Hezbollah has denied the Israeli claim of responsibility. Netanyahu vows retaliation, while the EU calls for an independent probe into the incident.
