Israel accused of ‘attempt to silence’ as UN says 240 journalists killed in Gaza

The United Nations reports 242 journalists killed amid the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict, marking Gaza as the deadliest war zone for reporters since 1992, says the Committee to Protect Journalists.

  • Amid mounting journalist deaths, the United Nations Human Rights Office said at least 242 Palestinian journalists have been killed in Gaza since October 7, 2023.
  • Israel claimed Al-Sharif was the head of a Hamas terrorist cell posing as an Al Jazeera journalist, citing Gaza documents as evidence.
  • In the latest attack, six journalists, including Anas Al-Sharif, were killed near al-Shifa Hospital, Gaza, with Mohammad Al-Khaidi dying later, Israel claimed.
  • Amid widespread outrage, the UN Human Rights Office condemned the killing of 6 journalists by Israel as a grave breach of international law.
  • Despite international condemnation, Freedom To Report warns that foreign journalists remain blocked from Gaza, causing an information blackout, while Israel considers allowing more media in.
