Saturday, January 6, 2024 – An Israeli news anchor was spotted with a gun live on air while presenting from the studio amid fear of another Hamas attack.
Lital Shemesh, a presenter for right-wing Israeli
broadcaster Channel 14, was pictured on Tuesday, January 2, sitting behind her
anchor desk with a gun tucked into the waistband of her trousers.
Shemesh's gun is right next to her microphone receivers
while she is sitting on the edge of her presenter chair.
Her most recent social media post showed her practising her
shooting skills on a gun range as she called for people to 'get your guns out'.
She also posted several pictures of herself reporting from
the frontlines as well as in her soldier's uniform.
The journalist and Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) reservist
has previously spoken about fighting Hamas.
'The entire country is being recruited to fight this war
against terrorism, to fight this war against Hamas,' Shemesh told Fox
News shortly after the October 7 attack.
'We haven't seen a slaughter like this
in Israel in the 75 years of Israel's existence. This is a second
holocaust for us.'
This comes as fears of another Hamas offensive have been rising after the terror group killed 1,140 people, most of them civilians, during their October 7 attack, according to a tally based on official Israeli figures.
