Israel/Palestine Conflict Coverage

[NewsGuy]

Thought it was worth creating a thread on this as it is fast becoming a major news event.

If anyone is looking for coverage from an Israeli perspective in English, i24 News have three rolling news channels in English, Arabic and French.

It's largely behind a paywall, but is on the Swiss services Zattoo and Teleboy and can be viewed for free with a VPN in the UK.

For an alternative view (but in Arabic), there is also Palestine Today via Youtube. - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9thfADzyIk

Very BBC News inspired graphics there.

Their live stream is still up - http://aqsatv.ps/live

Its a Hamas run channel like Al Quds TV. I can get the Al-Aqsa radio station on the Nilesat (actually 8W) and it is currently sounds like its re-broadcasting an AM station with lots of static.

Anyone got any grabs of how Israeli networks such as KAN are handling it?

On a personal note, I flew to Tel Aviv two years ago to the day for the last Eurovision. Both the broadcaster and the host city did an incredible job, but at no point did I feel particularly unsafe (the running joke the day after the night Israel won in Lisbon was, "well nobody's going to try a stage invasion next year!") - sad to see the situation now as it is as it's a great city.

I'm not sure if there is any video out there, but I was watching Al Jazeera English earlier, and there was a barrage of missile fire during a live report, prompting the reporter to seek cover.

EDIT: Found video.

That reporter was VERY calm after all that, wow...

There was an i24 reporter on Good Morning Britain today, so clearly that channel is busy providing copy for international stations.

This Sky News interview turned into a bit of a shouting match.

BBC World News ran a special at 1500 GMT / 1600 BST Thursday.

Another live attack, this time on BBC Arabic. The PRESS/TV labels don't help much in these cases.
