Reuters releases final video from cameraman killed in Gaza

By Martin Stabe wirepost

Reuters has released the final video shot by its cameraman Fadel Shana, who was killed yesterday in Gaza.

The video from Shana’s camera shows an Israeli tank opening fire. Two seconds later, the tape goes blank, apparently at the moment Shana was hit.

A medical examination conducted today suggests that Shana was killed by controversial weapons known as flechettes — small metal darts from tank shells that explode in mid-air.
