Palestinian reporter Mohammad Abu Hasira was recently killed alongside 42 of his family members, including his sons, after Israel bombed their house in Gaza City, Palestine news agency WAFA reported.
As of November 7, Committee to Protect Journalist (CPJ) investigations showed at least 39 journalists and media workers were among an estimated 11,000 killed since the war began on October 7, with more than 10,000 deaths in the Palestinian territories of Gaza and the West Bank and 1,400 in Israel.
Israeli forces have told news agencies that they cannot guarantee the safety of journalists working in Gaza, as they have begun their ground offensive deep into the city.
A few days back, AFP called on Israel to investigate an air strike that severely damaged its office located on the top floors of an 11-storey building. “A strike on the offices of an international news agency sends a deeply troubling message to all the journalists working in such difficult conditions in Gaza,” said AFP boss Fabrice Fries.
