Meanwhile, the Reuters news agency is calling on the Israeli army to release immediately its findings over the death of Reuters cameraman Fadel Shana. The twenty-four-year-old Palestinian died in April when an Israeli tank shelled his vehicle that was clearly marked “press.” Reuters deputy bureau chief Julian Rake criticized Israel’s failure to address Shana’s death.

Julian Rake: “Two months have passed since our friend and colleague Fadel Shana was killed by an Israeli tank shell in the Gaza Strip. In those two months, we’ve had no answers from the Israeli army as to why their tank crew fired on him. Now, this is effectively had — as well as causing great anguish to Fadel’s family, it’s effectively restricted the way the journalists in Gaza, not just Reuters, but all journalists, go about their business.”
