Israel murders three more Gaza journalists and dozens of civilians

Israel has murdered three more Palestinian journalists in airstrikes on residential areas in Gaza City:

• Mohammed al-Kouifi, a reporter working for Safa News Agency and AI-Aqsa TV
• Ayman Haniyeh, a photographer and broadcast engineer working for AI-Manara Media Agency and
• Iman al-Zamili, a journalist working for the Palestine News Network.

Israel: massacring more Palestinians in Gaza City

The same bombardment also slaughtered dozens of other civilians sheltering in their homes, including many children. Ayman Haniyeh had been wrongly reported as killed a fortnight ago after narrowly escaping a targeted strike near the Jordanian Hospital, but did not survive even two weeks more as Israel continues its campaign to silence coverage of its crimes in Gaza.

The murders come not even a week after Israel committed the biggest slaughter in history of journalists in a single day when it targeted and bombed two media offices in Yemeni capital Sana’a.

Israel has murdered at least 278 journalists and media workers during the Gaza genocide, according to human rights group Humanti Project. As well as targeting journalists, often along with their families, Israel continues to bomb fleeing refugees daily and has pushed Gaza into ‘Phase 5’ famine through its starvation blockade – a United Nations’ Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) that means around four hundred people are dying of malnutrition and malnutrition-linked conditions every single day.
