People Get Shot All the Time. This Time a Cameraman.
Snipers can make mistakes. When an unarmed man tried to retrieve the body of a man shot dead in the casbah by an Israeli sniper on Sunday, a sniper also cut him down.

In one case documented here by B'Tselem, the Israeli human rights organization, Soonah Sabrah, a woman in her mid-30s, was critically injured by shrapnel caused by tank fire as she was helping her neighbors get water. After his daughter was hurt, Hafez Sabrah, 63, went to his bed, by all appearances to cope with the shock, B'tselem reported.

After about an hour, when someone checked, Mr. Sabrah was found dead, his bed soaked with blood from his own shrapnel wounds, B'Tselem said.

At the refugee camp, Mr. Jacquier was, characteristically, among the first to step into the silent street to look around. He was not carrying his camera, which from a distance might be mistaken for a weapon.

He was riding in a vehicle marked, like the other three in the convoy, with masking tape forming letters that journalists covering this conflict invest with a totemic, warding power: "TV." His blue bulletproof vest had "PRESS" stamped across the middle.

None of Mr. Jacquier's colleagues saw a gunman — or anyone, for that matter. They just heard the shots, from nearby. It will almost certainly never be known who tried to kill this journalist or why.
