Al-Mayadeen reporter files complaint against Israeli journalist who 'intimidated' her
[An Nahar] A journalist with Lebanese al-Mayadeen television channel has filed a police complaint against an Israeli journalist who she alleged had "intimidated" her.

Hana Mohammed said Israeli journalist Haim Etgar confronted her at a post office after allegedly impersonating a postal employee and "threatening" her.
In Lebanon?! I thought they didn’t allow Israelis to pollute their purity.
"This is not the first time that this journalist has chased Arab journalists and intimidated them," she told AFP.

"When a journalist gives himself the authority to question another journalist like a policeman it legitimizes racist attacks on anyone," Mohammed said.

Etgar posted on his Instagram account a video of him following Mohammed out of the post office to her car, asking about her take on the war, Mayadeen's coverage and accusing her of broadcasting "fake news," such as that the Israeli army is using chemical weapons
...have not been used since WWI except for in Iraq, by the late, unlamented Saddam Hussein and in Syria, but really, honest, not by the Syrian government. And in Germany in WWII, but that was against civilians. Lots of them, just one of many reasons Hitler's also late and unlamented...
"We tried to ask questions, as always politely and without physical contact," Etgar wrote, alleging that Mayadeen was affiliated with Hezbollah.

"We didn't get answers."

There was no indication from police as to whether they were launching an investigation following the complaint.
