Al Jazeera announced the death of five journalists in a targeted Israeli attack in Gaza, including a reporter targeted by the Israeli army.

Following an Israeli attack in the Gaza Strip, five Al Jazeera journalists were killed, including Anas al-Sharif, a well-known reporter. The Israeli army confirmed it had targeted al-Sharif as a 'terrorist'. The attack, which targeted a tent used by journalists, is seen by Hamas as a sign of an Israeli offensive. Anas al-Sharif recently reported heavy shelling and left an emotional message calling for the situation in Gaza not to be forgotten. CPJ accused the Israeli army of vilification.
