I was skipping around through the news channels available to me last night - BBC News, France 24, Channel 4, very occasionally Sky; Freesat used to have CNN but that's gone from me, alas. I clicked on to Al-Jazeera - which has really excellent reporting on international stories that other channels don't touch, except sometimes France 24, which has some good coverage of African news - and the focus was on a burly white-haired man in a flak jacket with PRESS on it, walking through surrounded by others similarly dressed; sometimes with a hand coming in from the crowd to pet his arm.
The commentary soon told me that this was Al-Jazeera's bureau chief, Wael Al-Dahdouh. A few minutes earlier he had been commenting for the channel on an Israeli air strike on the Nuseirat refugee camp. His own family had fled to this central Gaza camp after Israeli bombing threats had warned people living in the north to move south. As he was giving his report, someone came to him and he turned aside to speak. The camera followed him to the hospital, where the bodies of his wife, his teenage son and his seven-year-old daughter were laid out. Other members of his family were under the rubble; his grandson has been found and they're still searching.
