Military says 'no suspicion' of a criminal act, Israeli media reported, adding that soldiers part of the deadly raid on the occupied West Bank had testified that they ‘had not seen’ the Al Jazeera journalist when she was shot and killed.
Critics say several Western media outlets once again failed to cover an incident in Palestine – this time the killing of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh – without displaying pro-Israel bias and using problematic framing in storytelling.
Ali Al Samoudi, a colleague of slain correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh, says Israeli troops fired three bullets at journalists, with the first one missing them, the second wounding Samoudi in the shoulder and the third hitting Abu Akleh in the head.
