It's hard for me to listen to "normal" conversation when I think that humans have accumulated enough nuclear weapons to destroy themselves 100s of times over. I don't understand people who are blasé about how close we are to destruction at our own hands. https://bit.ly/3kyxnun

🎥 Lebanese journalist Zeinab Faraj, from her hospital bed in southern Lebanon, recounted the moment an Israeli strike killed her colleague Amal Khalil.
Khalil was killed on Wednesday as she went to cover an earlier Israeli attack in the town of al-Tayri.
An initial strike hit a vehicle in front of Khalil and Faraj, prompting the pair to take shelter in a nearby house.
A second strike then hit the house, according to the health ministry. Rescuers retrieved Faraj, who sustained a head wound, but were fired on before they could reach Khalil.
Hours later, they found Khalil dead under the rubble.
