Reuters seek truth behind death of Fadel Shana

A month after Reuters cameraman Fadel Shana was killed by an Israeli tank shell in the Gaza strip, the news organisation still has no explanation from Israeli authorities as to why he was targetted,
"A month has passed since Fadel Shana was killed by Israeli forces while responsibly going about his professional duties," said Reuters Middle East Managing Editor Mark Thompson. "We urge the IDF to release its report on the incident now so that media organisations and the military can cooperate on ways ensure journalists can continue to cover this conflict." link
