In a horrific massacre, five journalists were killed while working in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip when the Israeli occupation forces bombed the “Al-Quds Today” satellite channel’s external broadcast vehicle.
The five journalists are: Faisal Abu Al-Qumsan, Ayman Al-Jadi, Ibrahim Al-Sheikh Ali, Muhammad Al-Lad’ah, and Fadi Hassouna.
The “Israeli” occupation’s targeting, murder, and assassination of Palestinian journalists was strongly denounced by the government media office in Gaza. The office called on the Arab Journalists Union, the International Federation of Journalists, and all other journalistic organisations worldwide to denounce these systematic crimes against Palestinian media professionals and journalists in the Gaza Strip.
The media office held the American administration, the Israeli occupation, and the nations involved in the crime of genocide—including Germany, France, and the United Kingdom—wholly accountable for carrying out this horrible and violent act.
Since the start of its aggression on the Gaza Strip on October 7, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have systematically and deliberately escalated their targeting of Palestinian journalists in order to prevent any attempt to expose their crimes against unarmed civilians.
In the ongoing genocide, an appalling number of 201 journalists have fallen victim to the merciless bombings by the occupation’s warplanes, most recently was the journalist Ibrahim Marwan Muharab, when the IOF targeted a group of journalists near Hamad City, northwest of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip.

Since October 7, the Israeli occupation launched relentless assault on Gaza that has resulted in a catastrophic death toll. Countless more remain trapped under the debris of residences obliterated by the occupation’s aerial bombardments.
This aggressive onslaught by Israeli occupation forces against Gaza starkly breaches international humanitarian law and human rights standards, imperiling civilian lives, including those of journalists and media workers, and inflicting profound distress and suffering upon them.
The Israeli occupation’s heinous crimes against journalists call for urgent action by the international community and human rights bodies to pursue and hold accountable the Israeli occupation apparatus for these egregious crimes.
