The Government Media Office in Gaza has reported on Wednesday that the number of journalists killed by "Israel" since the beginning of the genocidal war on the Strip has risen to 140, which comes as part of the occupation entity's systemic and deliberate targeting of media personnel, aiming to obstruct reporting on the brutal crimes against Palestinians in Gaza.

Journalists in Gaza are facing terrible dangers, brought forth by "Israel's" mass indiscriminate bombing of the Strip, communication and electricity outages, and supply shortages.

In early February, UN human rights experts sounded the alarm over soaring numbers of journalists killed in the war on Gaza, denouncing the "deliberate" Israeli strategy of silencing critical reporting.

The Committee to Protect Journalists CPJ warned last Thursday that “journalists in Gaza face particularly high risks as they try to cover the conflict during the Israeli ground assault."

Last week, the world's largest organization of journalists, the International Federation of Journalists, alongside 38 more media freedom organizations, including the CPJ, called on the Media Freedom Coalition (MFC) member countries to take “meaningful action” to protect journalists in Gaza.

The situation in Gaza “requires action from your member states to consistently and publicly call for the treatment of Palestinian journalists, who continue to report from Gaza in spite of the risks," their statement read, also calling for “the immediate and unfettered access of international journalists to Gaza."

On Monday, the Government Media Office in Gaza held Israeli occupation forces fully responsible for the safety and lives of the journalists and members of the media, who were taken to an unknown location after being tortured and brutally beaten.

The Office revealed that the Israeli occupation arrested a group of journalists who were reporting on the unfolding events in the Gaza Strip, as they gave updates on the wounded and famished in Al-Shifa Medical Complex.

Despite constant warnings by Palestinian and international media against the Israeli targeting of journalists in the Gaza Strip and calls for their protection, the occupation continues to systemically and deliberately target and kill journalists and media personnel in an attempt to conceal its genocidal crimes against the people of Palestine.
