Journalist dies of injuries from Gaza strike


Journalist Abdullah Murtaja succumbed Monday to wounds he sustained in an airstrike in the al-Shujaiyya neighborhood in Gaza City two weeks earlier.



Two other journalists were killed in the same airstrike in eastern Gaza City.


Ashraf al-Qidra, a health ministry spokesman, said that Murtaja died of blood loss from the injury.


Murtaja was a reporter for the al-Aqsa TV channel.


Seventeen journalists have been killed since the beginning of the Israeli offensive on the Gaza Strip.
