Israeli tank fire killed Reuters journalist in October attack, CNN analysis suggests
According to a CNN analysis, an Israeli tank fire killed a Reuters journalist during an October attack in the Gaza Strip. The analysis, which included internal documents from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and footage from an Israeli tank, suggests that the journalist, Yasser Murtaja, was covering a peaceful protest when the IDF targeted him with a round from a 120-mm cannon. Murtaja, 30, was wearing a vest marked “Press” at the time he was killed, and the video from the Israeli tank allegedly shows that the Israeli forces were aware of his presence. However, the IDF has not yet commented on the reports or provided any evidence to corroborate or refute the analysis.
