Reuters releases investigation finding Israeli tank fire killed 1 of its journalists Enlarge this image toggle caption Emilie Madi/Reuters Emilie Madi/Reuters BEIRUT, Lebanon — Investigations conducted by two news organizations and two human rights groups have concluded an Israeli tank round killed a Reuters video journalist near the Lebanese border in October and that Israeli forces either knew or should have known they were targeting journalists. "The Israeli military knew or should have known that they were civilians yet attacked them anyway in two separate strikes 37 seconds apart," Amnesty International said in a report released Thursday. Reuters said evidence of Israeli tank round shrapnel was found embedded in a vehicle and in body armor. Human rights officials said the multiple sources of video and other images from the attack on Abdallah and the other journalists made it possible to carry out unusually detailed analysis.
