The Israeli Army Kills 212 Gaza Journalists

The Israeli army has killed 212 Palestinian journalists in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of its genocidal war in October 2023.

In a statement, the Gaza-based Government Media Office reported that the journalist death toll in Gaza has risen to 212. The latest victim was journalist Saeed Abu Hassanein, who died from wounds sustained in an earlier Israeli airstrike in Khan Younis, southern Gaza.

The statement noted that Abu Hassanein was a journalist working at the local Al-Aqsa Radio.

It strongly condemned the Israeli systemic targeting of journalists, urging the International Federation of Journalists, the Arab Journalists Union, and all press organizations worldwide to condemn Israeli crimes and prosecute it before international courts.

The Israeli army resumed its assault on Gaza on March 18, shattering a Jan. 19 ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement according to Anadolu.

Israel has killed over 51,400 Palestinians in the enclave since October 2023, most of them women and children.

Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.​​​​​​​

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.

According to the testimonies, as IDF soldiers leave Lebanon, they load stolen items onto their vehicles openly, without attempting to conceal them. “It’s on a crazy scale,” one soldier said. “Anyone who takes something – televisions, cigarettes, tools, whatever – immediately puts it in their vehicle or leaves it off to the side, not inside the army base, but it’s not hidden. Everyone sees it and understands.” – The Palestine Project
