Al Jazeera corrected number when attacked in Gaza killed employees

The Qatarian broadcaster Al Jazeera corrected the number of employees killed in an Israeli attack in the Gaza Strip. In a report on his English -language website, Al Jazeera explained on Tuesday that four of his journalists were killed in the attack and not five, as originally stated.

In addition to the correspondent Anas al-Sharif, three of his colleagues died in a targeted attack on a tent for journalists in the city of Gaza in the north of the Gaza Strip. Rather, the previously mentioned maamen Aliwa worked as a freelance cameraman. Furthermore, a sixth journalist, Mohammed al-Chalidi, was also a freelancer. According to the organization reporter without a border, a total of six journalists died.

Israel’s military had confirmed Al-Scarif’s death. The 28-year-old had pretended to be an Al-Jazeera journalist, but he led a terrorist cell of the Islamist Hamas, the army said. She referred to alleged information from the secret services and documents found in the Gaza Strip, which are supposed to prove its military belonging to Hamas. Al-Sharif was “a leader of a terrorist cell of the terrorist organization Hamas and was responsible for rocket attacks on Israeli civilians and IDF troops”. Accordingly, he was on the Hamas salary list.

According to local journalists in the Gaza Strip, Al-Sharif had worked in a Hamas communications office at the beginning of his career. The Israeli military did not comment on the other five victims of the attack.

Even 48 hours after the air raid, there is still no explanation from the army why she targeted Al-Sharif when he was just with five other journalists, the Israeli newspaper “Times of Israel” reported. According to reports, the attack had hit a tent for journalists in front of the main gate of the Al-Schifa Hospital in the city of Gaza. Numerous non-governmental organizations as well as the UN and the EU foreign commissioner Kaja Kallas had convicted the killing of journalists.
