Washington:
The United States is aware of reports that an Al Jazeera reporter was detained by the Israel Defense Forces, State Department deputy spokesman Vedant Patel told a news conference on Monday, adding that Washington had sought information from Israel about the incident.
Qatar’s Al Jazeera accused Israeli forces of “attacking” its journalist Ismail al-Ghoul while he was working in Gaza and said his equipment was also destroyed.
The IDF could not immediately be reached for comment.
