Tragic Loss: AP Videojournalist Yaniv Zohar Killed in Hamas Attack on Family Home

Yaniv Zohar, a former Associated Press videojournalist, was killed along with his wife and two daughters during a Hamas attack on their home in the Nahal Oz kibbutz near the Gaza Strip. Zohar, who covered conflicts and major news events in Israel for 15 years, was known for his expertise in reporting on the intermittent warfare in the region. He was deeply involved in the coverage of the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza in 2005 and the abduction of Israeli soldier Gilad Schalit in 2006. Zohar's death occurred during the deadliest attack in Israel's history, with over 1,400 Israelis killed. He was remembered as a devoted journalist and a man of peace.
