Killing of civilians by Israeli army at Bureij
On 16 April 2008, Israeli soldiers killed Reuters cameraman Fadel Shana'a along with eight other Palestinians, among them six children, when they fired a tank shell at the group in the Bureij refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. Shana'a's video footage shows the tank firing and a glimpse of the incoming shell before going black at the moment of impact.
