On Thursday, five journalists were killed in Gaza when their vehicle, marked with the word 'Press', was struck by Israeli airstrikes targeting a terrorist cell from the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. The attack raises urgent questions about the safety of journalists operating in conflict zones as international advocacy groups stress the need for their protection.
The Israel Defense Forces defended their actions, emphasizing they took numerous precautions to minimize civilian harm during the strike, including aerial surveillance and precision munitions. However, the incident highlights the ongoing danger faced by journalists covering the conflict, who have increasingly become victims of wartime actions.
