Masked Vandal Smashes Haaretz Entrance Door in Tel Aviv
Published
Security footage released Wednesday showed a masked man breaking the glass entrance door at Haaretz's Tel Aviv offices overnight and fleeing. Haaretz's Hebrew and English reports describe two bricks thrown at the door; another direct report described a stone, but all accounts agree the entrance was smashed. The reports linked the incident to Sunday's smashing of the Channel 12 News entrance door in Tel Aviv, and one said police suspect the same person may be involved in both cases. They also placed it after months of threatening graffiti against journalists and media offices.

Difference in reporting
Sources factually disagree on the thrown object description: Haaretz's Hebrew and English pages say the masked vandal threw two bricks; Channel 13 describes a stone. The remaining facts are uniform: a masked person smashed Haaretz's Tel Aviv entrance door overnight Wednesday, fled, and the incident followed Sunday's Channel 12 News entrance-door vandalism. No source reports injuries.
