Israeli Strike Kills Five Al Jazeera Journalists Near Gaza Hospital

  • An Israeli strike late Sunday night in Gaza City killed six journalists, including four from Al Jazeera near Al-Shifa Hospital.
  • The strike occurred amid Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s new offensive to seize Gaza City and dismantle Hamas strongholds announced earlier that day.
  • The Israel Defense Forces accused Anas Al-Sharif, one of the journalists killed, of leading a Hamas cell and using journalism as cover, while Al Jazeera and rights groups denied these claims.
  • Minutes before his death, 28-year-old Al-Sharif posted about intense Israeli bombardment in Gaza City and urged people to resist silence and oppression.
  • The killings intensified calls from press freedom groups and the UN to protect journalists amid escalating conflict and a growing humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
