A fine news report keeping us updated on the crisis in Gaza. Unfortunate that Al Jazeera has to quote from one of its own, but it speaks to the reality on the ground there. Sourcing is decent, given circumstances, and the information is fairly and clearly presented.

With so many reporters barred from Gaza, we are relying heavily on Al Jazeera as our main purveyor of news from the area. And in news relying on anyone heavily is relying too heavily.

Valuable news sourced from a reporter inside Gaza. Some facts are fuzzy on sources, several are anonymous. Balanced collection of viewpoints, although not much space is given to any of them.
