Seven journalists injured by Israeli fire: Palestinian Journalists Syndicate
Seven Palestinian journalists have been injured by Israeli forces at the Gaza border on Monday, according to the group Palestinian Journalists Syndicate (PJS).
The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) issued a statement, condemning the violence and citing the PJS's work.
"The number of Palestinian journalists injured by gunfire in Gaza has grown by the week," said Sherif Mansour, the Middle East and North Africa Program Coordinator.
"The fact that Israeli authorities have ignored demands that they halt the use of live fire against journalists reinforces the perception that they do not want the world to see what is happening in Gaza."
According to the CPJ statement, the injured journalists are Omar Hamdan, Mohammed Abu Dahrouj, Abdullah al-Shorbagi, Farhan Hashem Abu Hadayd, Yasser Qudeih, Nihad Fuad, and Wael Dahdouh.
The seven hurt range from freelancers, reporters and camerapeople.
