Wednesday 31 July 2024 {HMC} The television network Al Jazeera says two of its journalists have been killed in an Israeli strike in Gaza City.
The pair were reportedly killed while filming near the house of killed Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in the Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza City.
In a statement, Hamas condemned the killings as a “heinous crime” – aimed, it says, “at terrorising and silencing” Palestinian journalists as they reported “the ongoing genocide against our people in the Gaza Strip for nearly ten months”.
Israel has not commented on the deaths of the two journalists.
