The Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip claimed the lives of two more Palestinian journalists.
According to the statement by the government’s Media Office in Gaza, journalists named Temim Ahmed Abu Muammar, working for Palestine Television, and Abdullah Maher al-Susi, an employee of Al-Aqsa Channel, lost their lives in the Israeli army’s attacks on Gaza.
The statement condemned the targeting and killing of Palestinian journalists and called on the international community and organizations to “put pressure on Israel to be tried in international courts for its ongoing crimes and to stop the crime of genocide, massacres, and assassinations of journalists.”
With these deaths, the number of journalists killed in the Gaza Strip under the Israeli army’s attacks since Oct. 7, 2023, has risen to 168.
