Israel says ‘high probability’ its soldier killed journalist Shireen Abu Aqla – BBC News


The Israeli military has concluded there is a "high probability" that one of its soldiers killed the Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Aqla.

The veteran Al Jazeera correspondent was shot in the head while covering a raid in the occupied West Bank in May.

It is the closest the military has come to admitting responsibility.

The military’s top legal officer has also ruled out a criminal investigation of the soldiers involved, effectively ending the probe into the case.

Abu Aqla’s family said they were "not surprised" that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) was trying to obscure the truth and avoid responsibility for her killing.
