Tragic. You admit you got out of the car "to do a piece to camera."
I once asked the IDF to compare the view of a shoulder-held TV camera to a shoulder-fired missile from 100 metres away.
From 10 metres it was hard to differentiate!
Your act in a war zone was gross carelessness. https://twitter.com/BowenBBC/status/1264261370209538050
Is this a camera or a shoulder-held missile?

A missile.
What happens when a Hizbullah crew in civilian clothes jumps out of a civilian car and points this at Israeli troops?
You say a "minute or two" after you and cameraman got out of car an Israeli tank shot at you.
A war zone, Hizbullah, battle bedlam, a possible missile attack, & an enemy that travels in civilian cars, ambulances, & press cars.

No soldier will stop & ask to see your press card.
