Since 7 October, Israeli occupation forces have escalated their assault on Gaza, leading to the deaths of 192 journalists. This shocking figure highlights the extreme risks faced by media professionals covering the conflict in the besieged Strip. Alongside journalists, significant civilian casualties include women, children, aid workers, and United Nations personnel, amplifying the humanitarian crisis.

Reports reveal that nearly 70% of the fatalities in Gaza are women and children, underscoring the devastating impact on vulnerable groups. Humanitarian workers and UN staff have also suffered heavy losses, further crippling efforts to deliver aid to the population. These indiscriminate attacks on civilians and those providing assistance demonstrate the dire conditions in the region.

Despite claiming to target militants, the Israeli occupation forces have faced widespread criticism for the scale of non-combatant deaths, including their own citizens. The mounting toll has intensified calls from the international community for accountability and immediate measures to safeguard civilians and uphold international humanitarian law.
