🧵: Don’t waste your time reading western/Israeli news headlines about what happened to Shireen Abu Akleh. Hear it firsthand from the Palestinian journalists who were with her and witnessed everything:
The journalist above details what happened.
At 6:30am, a vehicle carrying a group of journalists arrived at the first roundabout in Jenin refugee camp.
They were there to cover an Israeli raid on the camp, and a number of Israeli snipers were stationed on rooftops
Her colleague, Ali al-Samoudi, was also shot in the back.
They were both transferred to Ibn Sina hospital in Jenin, and her death was announced there.
Don't believe the Israeli lies about "exchange of fire". Don't fall for the vacuous wording of headlines.
This was targeted killing of a journalist by Israel, something which they have done with impunity time and time again. Its standard procedure for them at this point.
look at these clowns. trigger happy murderous buffoons who can't even run a decent PR response
