Russian independent journalist Andrey X said he and Loffredo were among five journalists grabbed by Israeli security forces, with all but Loffredo having been released. No details have yet surfaced about where or why they were arrested.
The story is quite interesting. Let's see how US media will respond to this.

US media? Respond? You might be waiting a long, long, time...

So?
It's war. Giving Iran information on how accurate their missiles actually are helps Iran in the next missile strike.
In Ukraine it's also illegal to film to results of missile strikes, for the exact same reason.

US reaction is going to be the most interesting part, especially if the US journalist is the only one who hasn't been released. No doubt Israel doesn't want the missile detonation sites photographed.

80% hit target Only military targets attacked, not like the idf strikes on hospitals and private infrastructure killing civilians. Not drones but hypersonic missile, so there is nearly no defense against mach 13. Fattah1 has a warhead of 350-450kg and there was nearly no damage? Ask yourself why. This was a demonstration and i bet the rockets did not carry a lot exlosives or maybe none. Even a 450kg stone has the power of more than 1kg tnt at this speed. It was a precision attack not like the exploding devices massacre.

The US will probably not do that much. That journalist broke a law that exists for good reasons.

LOL what damages? The only victim was a poor palestinian walking on the street and a disabled rocket fall onto his head šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Of course they would. They want to control all of the information about the war because the truth would be dangerous to them.
Israel downplayed the effect of the Iranian strike while simultaneously declaring it illegal to report on where missiles hit.
Uhuh. When would anybody expect anything different, under these circumstances?
reply
Wont they always do this and try to confinscate the pictures? They will always try to cover up the wrong that is happening. If the reporters werent there, how much would they be covering up?
reply
War of narratives has always been the most powerful. Whoever masters them will always be at an advantage

It'll be interesting to see how US protects its citizen when caught by Israel. If it's been by some other state, the story would have been a lot different.

Israel definitely giving off bad evil vibes more than ever!
