Foreign reporters in Gaza harassed by Hamas
The Government Press Office says foreign journalists stationed in Gaza have reported incidents of harassment by Hamas members, including threats and sporadic violence.
The reporters say that in several cases, Hamas fighters destroyed their equipment after they filmed its militant activity against Hamas instructions, such as the firing of rockets on southern Israel.
The GPO writes that 705 foreign journalists from more than 42 countries arrived to cover Operation Protective Edge, as compared to 303 who came to report on the 2012 Operation Pillar of Defense.
