Hamas gunment trying to arrest an AFP reporter were foiled when a group of journalists formed a human chain around his home. Officials from Ismail Haniyeh’s office arrived to end the standoff, calling it a “misunderstanding.”
The gunmen were looking for Sakher Abu El Oun, who presumably wrote this article about journalists protesting against Hamas. I haven’t found a version of the article online with any byline, but El Oun did attach his name to a similar article on August 13.
