‘Israel must not be allowed to kill and attack journalists with impunity’: Amnesty
An investigation by Amnesty has concluded that the Israeli strike which killed Reuters journalist Issam Abdallah and injured six other journalists was most likely a tank round fired from Israel.
The report, like the HRW statement we reported on earlier, called for the incident to be “investigated as a war crime”.
“No journalist should ever be targeted or killed simply for carrying out their work. Israel must not be allowed to kill and attack journalists with impunity,” said Aya Majzoub, Amnesty’s deputy regional director for the Middle East and North Africa.

Tank rounds have no eyes.
ReplyDeleteThe shell may well have been targeted at combatants , but the journalists took the risk upon themselves to be right at the frontline.
Many American and British correspondents were likewise killed in WWII. They accepted the risk, the deaths were tragic ,but you cannot blame the Germans or the Japanese for their deaths
Wow…
DeleteYr blatantly whitewashing of war crimes!
Mfer, Check the causalities of those war reporting journalists deaths before u fart so elegantly.
Incidentally dead & targeting slaughtering must be the sane in yr f*cked mentality.
