Anadolu Agency journalist survives Israeli fire
GAZA CITY, GAZA - SEPTEMBER 14: Photojournalist Ali Jadallah, 29, working with Anadolu Agency speaks during an exclusive interview after being hit by a rubber-coated metal bullet, fired by the Israeli army, while covering a rally in Gaza Strip on Aug. 30.
The photojournalist has been fourth time lucky over past more than one year, to survive teargas shells and bullets, allegedly fired by Israeli forces targeting him and other journalists in the field.
In the latest incident, on Aug. 30 he was accompanying the agency's team as usual to cover protests, near the eastern fence of Gaza city.
Jadallah said he was carrying his equipment, signifying for everyone that he was a photojournalist doing his professional duty.
Since March 2018, on Fridays hundreds of Palestinians across the Gaza Strip march toward the security fence, to participate in the anti-occupation protests, known as the “Great March of Return”.
"Soon I arrived at the point, where protesters had gathered and began taking some pictures, I felt something hard hitting my head. I lost vision and fell on the ground," Jadallah told Anadolu Agency.
"The pain was severe. Colleagues who carried me thought I was dead. Blood was flowing from my forehead," he said, while narrating the incident.
Jadallah had lost consciousness. He was immediately taken to a field medical point to receive first aid. Later, he was shifted to Al-Shifa Medical Complex in western Gaza city.
A cut mark that took 12 stitches to heal is visible in the middle of forehead, reminding his narrow escape from death.
Doctors say he would need a plastic surgery after recovery to attend to the large scar.
Even a fortnight later, the photojournalist is suffering from severe pain in his head. He complaints about constant dizziness, lack of appetite and loss of sleep due to constant pain.(Footage by Mohammed Dahlan/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
