The building housing Associated Press and Al-Jazeera offices in Gaza City was leveled by Israeli airstrikes. The IDF claimed the building contained Hamas military assets. AP has decried the strike, saying “we narrowly avoided a terrible loss of life.”
The owner of a Gaza high-rise housing the AP and other media outlets says he has received a call from the Israeli military that the building would be targeted. The man said he was told to make sure all residents have evacuated.
