CNN CLOSE CALL As Nearby Gaza Building BOMBED Live On-Air

CNN correspondent, Karl Penhaul, while delivering a live report from the Gaza Strip on Tuesday had to duck and cover after a blast from Israeli shelling of Gaza City struck a nearby building.

After the strike, smoke could be seen coming from the building.

The camera stayed trained on the blast, and viewers saw white smoke rise from the explosion site. After Penhaul ducked out of the shot and away from a window, CNN anchor Poppy Harlow explained what was happening. Penhaul and his crew were not hurt. A few moments later, Penhaul described the scene. source
