Scott Pelley, Anchor, CBS Evening News: “The Israelis say that civilians are being killed because Hamas militants are hiding among the civilians. What have you seen?”
Charlie D’Agata, CBS Journalists in Gaza City: “Hamas will tell you that that is absolutely not the case, but we know it is the case. The attack on the tv tower today, they were aiming at a person from the Islamic Jihad. People from that group had to admit that, yes indeed, that person was hiding among journalists.”
