Thanks to all those that asked. Baba is doing far better - was lucky the bullet hit below the knee. Was in usual good spirits today, joking that he has been working too much and needed a break anyway...

It was an Israeli shelling during the 2008/9 war, though I am not sure the exact location I am afraid.

. Baba has been working for AFP in Gaza since 2000, covered three wars and has won multiple awards. Hopefully his leg will be ok and he can return to work soon.

Today my brilliant photographer colleague Mohammed Abed al-Baba was shot in the leg by Israeli fire in northern Gaza. He was around 200 metres from the border fence, wearing a press vest, he says.

It is not impossible, but I would like to work on the basis of evidence and all the facts available. If you have any about this case, very happy to hear it. I haven't seen any video evidence of the actual shooting

Speaking to AFP, denied that the editing of the video to remove the full context about serving injured people could be seen as political manipulation. "As (long as) she acts as a human shield, it means that she is not a medic."

Did you see the full video? The full quote is human shield for the injured. Crucial bit of context missing...
