Al Jazeera announced that the Israeli strike on its tent in Gaza City on Sunday killed two of his correspondents-including a well-known journalist-Spol with three cameramen. Meanwhile, the Israeli army confirmed in the statement that it focused on Anasa al-Sharaifa and described the reporter as “terrorists” associated with Hamas.
“Journalist Al Jazeera Anas Al-Shaarif was killed with four colleagues in a targeted Israeli attack on a tent journalist in Gaza in Gaza,” said the transmitter based in Qatar.
“Al-Sharif, 28, was killed on Sunday after a tent for journalists outside the hospital gate was hit. The well-known Arab correspondent Al Jazeera allegedly largely extensively from the North Gaza.”
The channel said five of its employees were killed during a strike in a tent in Gaza and the others were listed as Mohammed Qreiqhe, along with Ibrahim Zahr, Mohammed Noufal and Moamen Aliwa.
The Israeli army confirmed that it had an attack and said it was hit by Al Jazeera al-Shaarif and called him a “terrorist” who “presented as a journalist”.
“A moment ago, in Gaza City, IDF hit Anas Al-Sharif, who presented himself as a journalist for Al Jazeera,” he said on the telegram and using an abbreviation for the army.
“Anas al-Shaarif served as a head of terrorist cell in the terrorist organization Hamas and was responsible for progress in missile attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers,” he added.
Al-Sharif was one of the most famous faces of channel working on Earth in Gaza and provided daily news in regular coverage.
After the press conference of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanjahu on Sunday, where the Prime Minister prevented the approval of the new offensive in Gaza, the al-Shaarif published reports of X describing the “intensive, concentrated Israeli bombing” on the city of Gaza.
One of his latest news included a short video showing the nearby Israeli strikes affected by the city of Gaza.
In July, the Committee on the Protection of Journalists issued a statement demanding its protection because the spokesman of the Arab language of the Israeli army of Avichay Adraee was accused of performing online attacks on the reporter by claiming to be a terrorist Hamas.
After the CPJ attack, he said it was “horrified” to learn about the deaths of journalists.
“The Israeli formula of journalists as militants, without providing credible evidence, raises serious questions about its intention and respect for freedom of the press,” said CPJ Sara Qudah, regional director.
“Journalists are civilians and must never be focused. Those who are responsible for this killing must be responsible.”
The Syndicate of Palestinian journalists condemned what he described as a “bloody crime” of the assassination.
Israel and Al Jazeera have a questionable relationship for years, and the Israeli authorities forbid the channel in the country and after the last war in Gaza attacked their offices.
Qatar, who is partly financed by Al Jazeera, has hosted the Hamas Political Management Office for years and has been a frequent place for indirect conversations between Israel and a militant group.
When Gaza has closed, many media groups around the world, including AFP, depend on the photo, video and text coverage of the conflict covered by Palestinian reporters.
At the beginning of July, reporters of the media guard dog (RSF) said that more than 200 journalists have been killed in Gaza since the beginning of the war, including several Allaveer journalists.
International criticism is growing over the situation of more than two million Palestinian civilians in Gaza, while UN agencies and rights warn that famine is taking place in the territory.
The targeted strike comes when Israel announced plans to expand its military operations on Earth in Gaza and Netanyah on Sunday said that the new offensive is ready to target the remaining fortresses of Hamas.
He also announced a plan to enable more foreign journalists to report inside the Gaza with the army when he spread his vision for victory in the territory.
The UN official warned the Security Council that Israeli plans to control the city of Gaza risked “another disaster” with far -reaching consequences.
“If these plans are introduced, it will probably evoke another disaster in Gaza, learn throughout the region and cause further forced displacements, killing and destroying,” Miroslav Jenca, General Secretary of the UN, told Miroslav Jenca.
