(Sky News-UK) Israel has denied targeting foreign media in airstrikes in Gaza. The Israeli military said it had "targeted two Hamas operational communication sites that were identified by precise intelligence." Discussing an attack on the building used by Sky News, Israeli military spokeswoman Avital Leibovich said a Hamas antenna was the target of the strike. "Out of all the buildings in Gaza, Hamas chose this building - the civilian media building - to place its electronic infrastructure and communications on the rooftop. The target was on the roof and only that target was hit." But she said: "I say this to any civilian in Gaza: stay away from Hamas sites."
