Gaza City: Four journalists were martyred in an airstrike by the Israeli occupation forces on Al-Mamadani Hospital in Gaza City on Thursday.
According to Kuwait News Agency, this incident raises the death toll among press personnel to 224 since the beginning of the Israeli war on Gaza. Local authorities in Gaza released a press statement detailing these figures.
The statement from the local authorities also highlighted the systematic targeting of Palestinian journalists by Israeli occupation forces. It emphasized that these actions are intended to conceal the atrocities committed against civilians in the region.
Palestinian authorities have called on the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ), the Federation of Arab Journalists (FAJ), and all professional associations worldwide to advocate for the victims of what they termed as Israeli genocide in occupied Palestine.
