This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 6 RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — The Palestinian Authority on Thursday announced the results of its investigation into the shooting death of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, saying it had proven she was deliberately killed by Israeli forces as she tried to flee.

He was headed across town to the place he’d worked for two decades, Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority’s Guadalupe light rail yard.
