GAZA (PIC)– Two journalists were wounded on Thursday while covering the IOF incursion into the central Gaza Strip Mghazi refugee camp and Masdar village.

Nehad Shnaha a photo journalist working with Reuters sustained gunshot wounds to the leg while Rami Abu Dayya a cameraman working for the al-Aqsa satellite station sustained shrapnel wounds to the head when the Israeli occupation airforce bombed a group of Palestinians east of Maghazi refugee camp.

Dr. Muaweya Hasaneen the general manager of the emergency services of the PA Ministry of Health told PIC reporter that Shnaha was wounded in the leg with IOF bullets and that he was taken to the operating theater to be treated.

Meanwhile lawmaker Fathi Hammad who heads the Aqsa Satellite network confirmed that their cameraman Abu Dayya was wounded while covering the IOF incursion commenting on the incident by saying that the Zionist enemy does not distinguish between fighters and journalists.

He further stressed that the IOF targeting of journalist of the Aqsa tv or any other news outlet is not going to make the journalists abandon their duties of conveying the truth about what is happening.

GAZA (PIC)– IOF troops targeted on Thursday journalists who came to al-Breij refugee camp to cover the Israeli incursion and subsequent clashes with Palestinian resistance. One journalist was seriously wounded.

Eyewitnesses reported that the Reuters’ team and the al-Arabeyya team escaped certain death when invading IOF troops fired towards them while they were covering the Israeli incursion into the Makbola neighborhood south-east of the Breij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.

Hanan al-Masri correspondent of al-Arabeyya satellite television said that the IOF troops “opened intensive fire at the journalists without any justification.”

She added that the al-Arabeyya team and a team of three working with Reuters had to take cover inside one of the houses in the area but the IOF troops continued to fire at them causing some damage to their equipment particularly satellite dishes. Both teams escaped injury.
