Five Al Jazeera Journalists Killed in Gaza Airstrike

Five Al Jazeera journalists were killed in an Israeli airstrike near Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, the network said. The victims, including reporter Anas al-Sharif, were inside a media tent when the strike hit, killing seven people in total.
Israel’s military claimed al-Sharif was a Hamas operative, a claim Al Jazeera rejected, calling the attack a “targeted assassination” and a blow to press freedom.
The Committee to Protect Journalists says at least 186 journalists have been killed since Israel’s Gaza offensive began in October 2023.
