At least 24 journalists killed during war

At least 24 journalists have been killed since the war broke out on 7 October, according to the Committee to Project Journalists (CPJ). 

Twenty of them are Palestinians, while three Israeli journalists and one Lebanese have also been killed. 

In addition, eight journalists were injured and three were reported missing or detained. 

“CPJ emphasises that journalists are civilians doing important work during times of crisis and must not be targeted by warring parties,” said Sherif Mansour, CPJ’s Middle East and North Africa program coordinator.

“Journalists across the region are making great sacrifices to cover this heartbreaking conflict. All parties must take steps to ensure their safety.”
