Three Journalists Among Nine Palestinians Killed in Israeli Airstrike in Northern Gaza
Gaza (Quds News Network)- Nine Palestinians, including three journalists, were killed and several wounded in an Israeli attack targeting a civilian vehicle in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza on Saturday.
Mohammad Hassna, a humanitarian worker, stated that the occupation forces struck a vehicle that was transporting aid distribution teams in the northern Gaza Strip, according to Al Jazeera.
The Palestinian Journalists Protection Center (PJPS) confirmed the killing of the three journalists in an airstrike targeting a media team documenting humanitarian efforts in northern Gaza.
It said the journalists were documenting “aid efforts for those affected by the ongoing Israeli genocide,” adding “targeting journalists obstructs the flow of information and prevents the world from seeing the true situation in Gaza.”
The attack constitutes a “war crime aimed at press freedom and the safety of media and humanitarian workers,” it said.
Among the victims are Mahmoud Al-Saraj, Bilal Akila, and Mahmoud Isleim.
