Gaza Reporters' Tweets: Hamas Using Human Shields
(Jerusalem Post) Lahav Harkov - Journalists have reported seeing rockets fired from civilian areas in Gaza in recent days. Peter Stefanovic of Australia's Channel Nine News tweeted: "Hamas rockets just launched over our hotel from a site about two hundred meters away. So a missile launch site is basically next door." Financial Times Jerusalem Bureau Chief John Reed reported seeing "two rockets fired toward Israel from near al-Shifa hospital," the main medical facility in Gaza City. Wall Street Journal correspondent Nick Casey tweeted a photo of a Hamas official using Shifa hospital for media interviews. Harry Fear, a journalist from the UK reporting from Gaza for RT (formerly Russia Today) television, tweeted: "Early morning Gaza rockets were fired into Israel. A well-known site in W. Gaza City, near my hotel, was among the origins."
