Two more Palestinian journalists were killed in an Israeli bombing of their car in Gaza, bringing the death toll since October 7 to 109.
Hamza Wael Al-Dahdouh, the son of Al Jazeera bureau chief in the Strip Wael Al-Dahdouh and Mustafa Thuraya, were identified as the strike victims in Khan Younis. The pair were documenting the aftermath of overnight attacks on homes near the road that connects Khan Younis with Rafah.
The Gaza government’s media office condemned the killings, stressing that Israel aims to ‘intimidate journalists in a failed attempt to obscure the truth and prevent media coverage’. Reporters Without Borders also criticised the bombing, calling it a ‘never-ending slaughter’.
