GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip Aug 26, 2006 (AP)— Two missiles fired by Israeli aircraft early Sunday morning hit an armored car belonging to the Reuters news agency, moderately wounding two television cameramen and three bystanders, Palestinian witnesses and hospital officials said.

The Israeli army said it was checking the report.

According to witnesses, a Reuters cameraman and a freelance cameraman working for an Arabic network were standing outside the vehicle in the Shajaiyeh neighborhood of Gaza filming a nearby Israeli raid when the missiles hit the car.

The white sports utility vehicle was emblazoned with the Reuters logo and had "TV" written on it in English, Arabic and Hebrew, witnesses said.

were standing outside the vehicle in the Shajaiyeh neighborhood of Gaza filming a nearby Israeli raid

... pointing their camera at the action ... or was it a laser designator or shoulder-fired rocket? No time during battle conditions to figure out which. Price of doing business, guys.

Two missiles and those standing around the car were still mostly intact? I'll have to wait for the pictures to judge. ;)

Wrong title.

The article should be titled "Wintess: Israel Strikes Abu Reuters Car".


There. That's better.

They dont always need photoshop. They just .... lie.


In Tyre, Lebanese Red Cross (ie. terrorist) "ambulance worker" peers from the roof top of an ambulance
that was rusted, that had no windows broken and no burn or bomb marks.
The terrorists claimed that the hole happened when the ambulance was 'bombed' by the Israeli Air Force.
Any idiot can see corrosion all over the ambulance with no incendiary markings.
So who would anyone believe it? The MSM lapped it up.
