Newspaper building destoryed in Gaza

According to the Arab Network for Human Rights, the building of the al-Resala weekly newspaper, affiliated with Hamas, was destroyed during the on-going war in Gaza.

A press release by the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) indicates that the newspaper was also attacked by Israeli missiles in 2004.

Apparently the newspaper has a history of bad luck. A paper published on the website middleeastfacts.org by PCHR states that the weekly was subject to censorship from 1999-2000 under the Palestinian National Authority, which ruled Gaza at the time.
