## Resource

The Foreign Press Association has accused the Israeli military of discrediting a Lebanese journalist it killed in March, by using an AI-generated photo to present him as a "Hezbollah terrorist". The Israel Defence Forces claimed responsibility for killing Ali Shoeib in a targeted Israeli air strike in southern Lebanon. It then shared an edited photo of him on social media, overlaying his press vest with a Hezbollah uniform, saying a "press vest is just a cover for terror".
