Israeli responds to claims forces shot Shireen Abu Akleh in the head while she was on assignment in Jenin, West Bank

 

The Israeli government has responded to the shooting of Al Jazeera Journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.

According to the country’s Prime Minister, an investigation has been conducted into the incident.

He says that Palestinian gunman are responsible for the shooting.

His statement contradicts earlier claims which stated that Israeli armed forces had shot the journalist.

Shireen Abu Akleh was killed while covering Israeli raids in the city of Jenin.

Eyewitnesses say she was shot in the head, and video was also quick to surface on social media.

It’s believed the journalist was wearing a press vest when she was killed.

She was rushed to hospital, where she was declared dead. Her colleagues were seen screaming her name in horror and disbelief.

Meanwhile Qatar’s Assistant Foreign Minister says the attack is “state sponsored Israeli terrorism”, and is calling for such violence to end.

AlJazeera has since released a statement, urging international condemnation of Israel, as they believe their journalist was in-fact shot by forces.

 
 
 

Earlier, the Palestinian Ministry said Shireen Abu Akleh, a well-known Palestinian reporter for the broadcaster’s Arabic language channel, was shot and died soon afterward.

They also stated that another Palestinian journalist working for the Jerusalem-based Al-Quds newspaper was wounded but is in a stable condition.

Ongoing conflict in Israel has seen raids occur almost daily in the city of West Bank.
