CNN —Several journalists, including a CNN stringer, were injured in an attack on a refugee camp in central Gaza, amid mounting concerns about media workers being killed and injured while covering Israel’s military campaign. CNN has reached out to the Israel Defense Forces for comment on the attack and on allegations that journalists were targeted at the camp. Several journalists, including a CNN stringer, were injured in the attack on April 12. CNN footage shows a few other injured people brought into the hospital, including a number of journalists.

He said that so far, 20 cousins and other relatives have been killed since the start of Israel's campaign against Hamas following the militant group’s deadly Oct. 7 incursion into southern Israel that set off the war. More than 1,200 people in Israel died, most of them in the Hamas attack, and about 240 hostages were taken from Israel into Gaza by Palestinian militants. They now live in the United States. The two communicate via text messages because listening to her tear-filled voice as the war rages is difficult, Shehada said. “The house next to my sister was struck by a missile where I had 12 relatives living there,” he said.

"We tell America, Israel and those who stand with it that we will never leave the Gaza Strip.

[1/3] Palestinian Omar Khalifa, 27, points to the bullet hole in his car, which was attached by Israeli settlers while he was in it with his family, in Huwara, the Israeli-occupied West Bank, March 7, 2023. REUTERS/Raneen SawaftaHUWARA, March 7 (Reuters) - Israeli settlers attacked Palestinians in the West Bank village of Huwara overnight on Monday, the scene of a violent rampage last week by dozens of settlers seeking revenge for the shooting of two Israelis sitting in their car at a nearby checkpoint. Huwara, a Palestinian village near a major road junction where settlers and Palestinians have frequently clashed, has become the latest flashpoint between after months of worsening violence in the occupied West Bank. Other footage appeared to show Israeli soldiers dancing together with Jewish settlers in the town on what was the Jewish festival of Purim. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken overnight reiterated calls for both sides to de-escalate tensions in the West Bank and the violence is also expected to be raised by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin when he visits this week.
