00:00The tent belonging to the press and located inside the Al-Aqsa Hospital in Gaza was hit
00:05by an Israeli missile attack, killing one person and injuring dozens.
00:10Our correspondent Huda Hegassi with the story.
00:15Just a few minutes ago the Israeli army bombed one of the tents here inside the Martyrs of
00:19Al-Aqsa Hospital.
00:20This tent belonged to the press, to several media outlets, and as we can see it has been
00:25completely bombed and destroyed by a missile fired from the planes of the Israeli Occupation
00:29Army.
00:41At least one person was killed instantly in this attack and two of them were injured and
00:45are in a critical and life-threatening condition.
00:47Also a dozen of evacuated Gazans who were near this tent were also wounded.
00:51It must be said and emphasized that this tent belongs to a group of journalists, to the
00:56press.
01:12One of the main objectives of the occupation forces is to attack the press workers to prevent
01:16them from continuing to report to the world the crimes and atrocities committed by the
01:20Israeli regime here in the Gaza Strip.
01:22We must emphasize that this tent is very close to the place we have settled in.
01:26That is to say between this tent and us there are approximately 5 meters.
01:47If the bombing had been bigger, with more missiles, this tent would have been hit by
01:50the missiles and we could have been wounded or lost our lives.
02:09As we are seeing the Israeli army wants to attack the press workers, the media workers
02:14and this is not the first time that they have attacked the tents of journalists inside the
02:17Martyrs of Al-Aqsa Hospital.
02:19About three months ago another tent was directly attacked wounding several journalists.
