The Number of Journalists Killed in Gaza War Rises to 205
The total number of journalists killed during the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza has reached 205, according to reports from rights and media organizations. This makes it one of the deadliest conflicts for journalists in recent history.
The latest victim was journalist Ahmad Abu Al-Rous, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting his vehicle near Masqat School in the Nuseirat refugee camp in southern Gaza. Abu Al-Rous was covering the escalating situation in Gaza when the attack occurred, killing him instantly.
This tragic toll comes as Israeli attacks continue to target civilian areas, including media facilities and journalists reporting from the field.
International rights groups and press freedom organizations have condemned the targeting of journalists, calling it a violation of international laws that protect civilians and media workers during conflicts. They have also demanded urgent investigations into these attacks and measures to ensure the safety of journalists.
Most of the journalists killed were Palestinian, working under extremely dangerous conditions to document the events and violations in Gaza. Meanwhile, Israeli authorities continue to block international media from entering the territory to provide independent coverage of the conflict.
