Photographer kidnapped in Gaza
Advertisements [?]
A photographer from a French news agency has been kidnapped in Gaza, according to witnesses.

Agence France-Presse photographer, Jaime Razuri, a 50-year-old Peruvian national, was seized in Gaza on Monday by unknown armed men as he entered the agency's offices in Gaza City, AFP reported two witnesses as saying.

Hamman Al Faghawi, a translator with AFP, said: "We got out of the jeep. I heard the noise of weapons. I turned around and I saw two unmasked men. They pointed their weapons at Jaime and at me."

"They told me to shut up and took him away in a Subaru car," he said.
