JERUSALEM - The Israeli army has expressed a note of contrition after a television station aired a videotape showing an army assault on a Palestinian home in which a mother of five children died.

When CBC News spoke with Ismail Hawarjeh at Bethlehems hospital earlier this month, there was no way to verify the story he told about how his wife had died, until Israels Channel 2 broacast the tape last weekend
