The Israeli genocide in Gaza has spared no one, not even medical workers, football players, or journalists.

The Israeli army has killed 212 Palestinian journalists in the Gaza Strip since the start of its murderous war in October 2023, Anadolu Agency reported, citing the Gaza-based Government Media Office.

The most recent fatality was journalist Saeed Abu Hassanein, who died from injuries received in an earlier Israeli air attack in Khan Younis, southern Gaza.

The statement detailed that Abu Hassanein was a journalist for the local Al-Aqsa Radio.

It strongly criticized "Israel's" systematic targeting of journalists and urged the International Federation of Journalists, the Arab Journalists Union, and other press organizations throughout the globe to condemn Israeli crimes and pursue them in international tribunals.

More journalists and media workers have been murdered in the besieged Gaza Strip since October 2023, when "Israel" began its continuing genocidal assault on the Palestinian enclave, than in both World Wars and other major conflicts combined, a report revealed in early April.

On his part, American investigative journalist Nick Turse, in his comprehensive report, "News Graveyards: How Dangers to War Reporters Endanger the World," published by Brown University's Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs, revealed that 232 journalists have been killed in Gaza as of March 26.

The startling figure, which averages about 13 fatalities per month, exceeds the total number of journalist deaths in the US Civil War, both World Wars, the Korean and Vietnam Wars (including conflicts in Cambodia and Laos), the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s and 2000s, and the war on Afghanistan combined, he said.

The report emphasized that local journalists bear the brunt of these risks, as the decline in Western foreign correspondents has forced the global media to rely more on local reporters, who frequently operate with limited resources and protection.

According to the research, “Most reporters harmed or killed, as is the case in Gaza, are local journalists. The world increasingly relies on these often underpaid, under-resourced, and under-equipped journalists to carry out the most dangerous types of coverage as the number of Western foreign correspondents dwindles."

Turse emphasized in his report that the Israeli regime's restriction on foreign reporters in Gaza, along with the murder of Palestinian journalists, means there are considerably fewer journalists capable of relaying news from the war-torn area to the American audience.

He added that this was particularly harmful since the US “approved around $18 billion in financial support for Israeli military aggression in Gaza and elsewhere in the year following October 2023."
