Journalist Muhammad Jabr Qrainawi, an editor at the SANAD News Agency, was martyred on Saturday evening in an Israeli airstrike that targeted his home in the Al-Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.

SANAD reported that Qrainawi was martyred along with his wife, Maram, and their three children, Jabr, Sidra, and Ayat, in the Israeli strike that hit their home near the “Block 6” roundabout in Al-Bureij.

The agency noted that Qrainawi worked to cover and convey the suffering of citizens in Gaza during the war through his stories and distinctive reports, despite the harsh conditions resulting from the ongoing genocide.

It recalled that Qrainawi and his wife were injured in the early months of the Israeli war when an Israeli strike targeted their home in Al-Bureij. He was rescued from the rubble and returned to his journalistic work until he was martyred yesterday evening.

On Saturday morning, the martyrdom of journalist Muhammad Bahloush was announced after an airstrike targeted his home on Ahmed Yassin Street in the Al-Safatawi neighborhood in northern Gaza City.

For its part, the Government Media Office (GMO) in Gaza said that the number of martyred journalists has risen to 195 following the martyrdom of Qrainawi.

The GMO condemned in the strongest terms the targeting, killing, and assassination of Palestinian journalists by the Israeli occupation army, calling on all countries to condemn these systematic crimes against Palestinian journalists and media personnel in Gaza.

The GMO held Israel, the U.S. administration, and countries complicit in this genocide, such as the United Kingdom, Germany, and France, fully responsible for committing these heinous crimes.
