The Washington Post publishes a lengthy investigation bearing out what eyewitnesses said on May 11, an Israeli soldier killed Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in occupied territories. The Post openly disputes the shifting Israeli “claims” about who killed Abu Akleh, and all but accuses the Israeli army of withholding evidence from the public. The investigation will add pressure on Secretary of State Antony Blinken to actually demand an independent investigation and accountability for the Israelis.
