تعرض فريق قناة "المنار" الإثنين لإطلاق نار في القلمون السورية أثناء تغطيته سيطرة الجيش السوري على بلدة معلولا المسيحية، ما أدى إلى مقتل المراسل حمزة الحاج حسن ومصور وتقني، وإصابة اثنين أخرين.

وأفادت قناة "المنار" بعد ظهر الإثنين عن تعرض فريقها "لإطلاق نار من قبل الجماعات المسلحة خلال تغطية استعادة الجيش السوري لبلدة معلولا في جبال القلمون.

وبعد تريث القناة في الإعلان عن مقتلهم قالت القناة مساء أنها "تنعي الشهيدين الزميلين المراسل حمزة الحاج حسن والتقني حليم علاو بعد تعرضها لإطلاق نار من قبل المجموعات المسلحة في معلولا".

وبعد دقائق قالت مذيعة القناة "المنار تنعى أيضا المصور محمد منتش الذي استشهد منذ قليل" بإطلاق النار في معلولا.

وأكدت مرارا أن "سيارات الموكب الإعلام كانت تحمل بوضوح شارات صحفية".

وبعدما نعى المدير العام لقناة "المنار" ابراهيم فرحات أفراد القناة أكد "ستستمر بتغطية الاحداث في سوريا ولن تتوانى عن ذلك مهما حصل من اعتداء عليها".

وأضاف "قناة المنار كما عوّدت جمهورها في تقديم التضحيات، لن تبخل في تقديم الشهداء على مذبح الحرية في سبيل مهنة المتاعب".

وكان آخر ما كتبه الحاج حسن على حسابه عبر موقع "الفايسبوك" ظهر الإثنين "ببركة دماء الشهداء، وعزيمة المقاتلين الابطال، النومة الليلة بفندق السفير _ معلولا".

ودان رئيس الجمهورية ميشال سليمان الحادثة قائلا أن "اغتيال الاعلاميين هو عمل جبان".

واليوم الإثنين استعادت القوات النظامية السورية السيطرة على مدينة معلولا والتي خرجت بشكل شبه كامل من ايدي مقاتلي المعارضة.

وقال مدير المرصد السوري لحقوق الانسان رامي عبد الرحمن ان "منطقة القلمون باتت بشكل شبه كامل تحت سيطرة حزب الله وقوات النظام السوري".

والحسن ورفاقه ليسوا اللبنانيون الأوائل كضحايا الأزمة السورية، إذ قتل مصور تلفزيون "الجديد" علي شعبان في التاسع من نيسان عام 2012 إثر تعرضه لإطلاق نار من الجانب السوري على فريق العمل في منطقة وادي خالد.

وقبل مقتل طاقم "المنار"، احصت منظمة "مراسلون بلا حدود" مقتل 28 صحافيا بينهم تسعة مراسلين اجانب واكثر من مئة مواطن صحافي سوري في سوريا منذ اندلاع النزاع في هذا البلد في اذار 2011.

Good news. I wish everybody related one way or the other to Hizb el Thugs will face the same fate. No mercy for these people. I wish them all dead including their families. Now come call me takfiris as much much as you like. I don't give a D A M N thing about what Iran supporters think

I am overwhelmed with sorrow, sadness, and tremendous pain at this great national loss. Life can be cruel sometimes. Why did this happen? Why? These professionals were simply covering the news of the resistance's victories and did not deserve such a painful death.

It overwhelms me with sadness to see these destructive and despicable comments. These men were innocents and did not kill anybody. They may have supported a cause you do not condone, but they did not deserve to die. Did they kill anybody? No. They are reporters and part of the press.

You people are not any better than the terrorists you speak of, for you both condone the loss of innocent life.

They are murderers and criminals. What were they filming? The heroic barbaric footage of HA killing civilians. HA multiple rocket launchers raining death on syrian villages.

If you are looking for a M8 vs. M14 debate with me, you will be disappointed - for I dislike them all. They are all confessional elites brainwashing all of you to think that "the other side" is causing our issues, while they share the spoils that come with being on top of the brainwashed masses.

Do not try to spin my comments on the M8 vs. M14 debate. While you all discuss the so-called Takfiri/Israeli "threat" or the Iranian hegemony threat, I'm happy thinking about some real issues that people actually encounter in everyday life: our government's unsustainable public debt, our clientelistic political system, our horrible electricity infrastructure, etc.

Its a combat zone where there are no laws of engaging or disengaging. There are in towns with terrorists and clearly their van must have had the manar sign. It is a sad act of vengeance because the salafists are losing ground in the city , nonetheless it was predictable that these creatures have no respect for anything. On the other side, Hezbollah has gone from a force protecting chiites shrines into a supporting regime militia under the pretext of battling takfiris. who's right who's wrong?

Anyways RIP for the journalists be it from hezbollah or any camp. They are risking their lives for their beliefs and convictions. whether you support them or hate them, i respect the fact that there are people dying without even killing their ennemies just to support their ideas and views.This war in Syria is the product of an American scheme to destabilize Syria till they get what they want from Iran.On the other hand Iran is helping Assad with hezbollah by resisting as much as they can so that she can have a say in negotiations and Assad still be a threat if an American-israeli war is waged on Iran.

What are we but toys be it march 14th or march 8th in the hands of this war between the west and Iran-Syria? one thing for sure, i do not support either camp, but i admire the fact that at least M8's allies be it Russia, iran, Syria, have always showed support not just by talks but by weapons and means of actions towards their allies. All the american and europeeans do is bark and condemn. Even if their interests are with you, they can let you die a hundred times before acting to be sure its worth their time and while, and money of course.

Generally it's bad when reporters die, but in this case I have no sympathy. First of all, look at the picture of the guy on the left, he's wearing a green cap and jacket. That doesn't look like someone from the media. He looks like a terrorist. Second, these guys decided to cover Hezbollah's activity in Syria, they knew the risks. Hezbollah shouldn't even be in Syria to begin with, let alone their reporters. Spare me the condolences ice-man, jerry is right they are the voice of hatred and evil. All they do is spread Hezbollah's propaganda, the fact that they work for Hezbollah makes them immoral. Ibnharethreik is right, when do we ever hear condolences to Syrian reporters dying? Real reporters, who were covering what was once a revolution. Sorry to say but that revolution is dead. It's now a war between al-Qaeda and Assad. As long as the US does nothing, war will continue for years. There are 20 million Sunnis in Syria, Assad is never going to regain the whole country.

Thumb jabal10452 23:57 ,2014 نيسان 14

The death of a man is no reason for me to celebrate, but please keep this in mind: this man was engaged in propaganda in a war zone. His last comment on Facebook proves that he was not an objective journalist, but Al-Manar's propaganda point man.
In wartime, propaganda is a weapon.

Lack of Rear Wolf, I am here and I am reading the hatred that you guys share mutually and abstain from joining the chat, but I don't see what has this got to do with me, Then you said something about respect. Well mate, respect is something that starts at home, just like charity, so if you want people to respect you, then you will have to start by respecting yourself. But it seems that this is too big an effort for some people. However it has been clinically proven that when such people receive the right treatment, they eventually come out on top of this challenge. Just for the record, and have a good day mate.

Thumb -phoenix1 12:49 ,2014 نيسان 15

And oh, you also said FAKE ya Lack of Rear Wolf. Then speaking professionally, there are some very good software in the market, the good ones cannot be cracked if you know what I mean. They do a character mapping analysis of writings, and guess what? People like you are easily unscripted to reveal the high level similarities that link those who use multiple accounts. I don'r know what you meant by your use of the word FAKE, but I hold no doubt that used it to refer to yourself. Can a thief live with decent folks without his attempt to steal from them? Highly unlikely? Can a liar attempt to be any better? Also highly unlikely. But the cure exists, and it all starts by accepting that not everyone is a parrot, thus freedom of speech. That's where your problem resides, intolerance.
