Incredibly tense and dangerous footage this morning as CNN's Clarissa Ward takes cover in a ditch as rockets are fired close to the Gaza Strip / Israel border.
As much as people attack the mainstream media in this country, there are so many journalists who put their lives on the line to report accurate information to the American people.
Thank you Clarissa and CNN's team. Stay safe!
