The 189 Palestinian journalists killed in the war in Gaza endured hunger and grief
The latest journalist killed was a photojournalist known for human-centered reporting; press freedom groups condemn the deaths amid ongoing Israeli military strikes in Gaza.
- On August 25, 2025, Israeli airstrikes hit Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, killing at least five journalists and several others including rescuers.
- The strikes occurred amid Israel's ongoing military campaign against Gaza following the war's start in October 2023 after Hamas attacked Israel.
- Since the war began, more than 246 Palestinian journalists have been killed while reporting, with Israel accusing some of militant group ties, which journalists and outlets deny.
- Jodie Ginsberg, a prominent journalist rights advocate, emphasized that merely supporting Hamas does not classify someone as a combatant nor does it warrant their killing.
- The killings have sparked widespread international outrage and led to legal challenges against Israel, including a case accusing it of genocide brought before the International Court of Justice in relation to its military operations in Gaza.
