Israeli attacks continue to kill journalists in Gaza
As we enter 2025, CPJ has grimly recorded that Israel’s killings of journalists in Gaza has not abated.
One day after Christmas, Israeli forces killed five journalists and media workers with Al-Quds Al-Youm TV in a strike on their vehicle outside Al-Awda Hospital in central Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp.
The Associated Press reported that footage showed the van had visible press markings. This attack meant that at least nine journalists were killed in a two-week period over one year into the war.
At least 160 journalists and media workers have been killed in the Israel-Gaza war, according to CPJ’s latest data.
Separately, on January 1, the Palestinian Authority suspended Al Jazeera on grounds of “inciting material.” The ban comes after the Authority criticized Al Jazeera’s coverage of a standoff between Palestinian security forces and militant fighters in Jenin camp, located in the West Bank.
CPJ issued a statement urging the Palestinian Authority to lift its ban.
