Number of journalists killed in Gaza rises to 100: Government media office
GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – One more journalist was killed in the Gaza Strip as a result of Israeli attacks, the government media office said on Friday, bringing the total number of journalists killed since Oct. 7 to 100.
“The number of journalists killed has risen to 100, men and women, since the start of the brutal war on the Gaza Strip, after the martyrdom of journalist Mohammed Abu Hweidy in an Israeli airstrike in the Shuja’iya neighborhood,” the media office said on Telegram.
Since an Oct. 7 attack by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas, Israel has pounded the Gaza Strip, killing at least 20,258 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring more than 53,000, according to health authorities in the enclave.
The Israeli onslaught has left Gaza in ruins with half of the coastal territory’s housing stock damaged or destroyed, and nearly 2 million people displaced within the densely-populated enclave amid shortages of food and clean water.
