At least 86 Palestinian journalists have been killed in the ongoing Israeli military campaign in the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, the government media office (GMO) said on Tuesday.
The GMO said in a statement that the latest fatality was Mohamed Abu Samra, who was killed in an Israeli attack on Sunday.
“Israel’s assassination of Palestinian journalists is an attempt to obscure the Palestinian narrative and hide the truth,” the statement said.
The GMO further noted that at least six Palestinian journalists were detained during the Israeli ground incursion into the Gaza Strip in clear and flagrant violation of all international laws and conventions.
The GMO also called on all international, regional, and Arab press and media unions to condemn the Israeli crimes against Palestinian journalists and to pressure Israeli authorities to release all detained journalists who were subjected to all forms of abuse and torture.
