Al Jazeera journalist Anas al-Sharif has been killed alongside four colleagues in a targeted Israeli attack on a tent housing journalists in Gaza City.
Seven people were killed in the attack on the tent located outside the main gate of Gaza City’s al-Shifa Hospital late on Sunday evening, including Al Jazeera correspondent Mohammed Qreiqeh and camera operators Ibrahim Zaher, Mohammed Noufal and Moamen Aliwa.
The strike killed seven and maimed eight. All but Anas al-Sharif were collateral damage. The justification for the strike was killing al-Sharif, who Israel says was secretly hiding Hamas soldiers in his backpack.
