Israel has rapidly broken the trend of warring parties being sensitive and accountable for the safety of journalists, no matter how deadly the war. Journalists have started to be killed in the Gaza Strip of Palestine after being targeted by Israel.

Israel is attacking the journalists who are bringing to the world through their cameras the raw blood, hunger, crying and separation that is flowing in the Palestinian land. Instead of being held accountable for the barbarism he perpetrated, he chose to kill the journalist who was reporting the news. The Israeli analysis may be that the world will not be able to hear and see the story of the massacre in Gaza because there are no

journalists. It is not surprising that Israel does not feel comfortable killing journalists in order to kill helpless starving children. Even when children and journalists are being killed, the silence of the Shakti nation is strange. If the Israeli momentum of genocide is not slowed down, the future will bring down the Israeli rulers along with the rulers of power nations and the prudent citizens of the world.

On October 7, 2023, the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a fierce attack on Israel. In addition to missiles, Hamas fighters were able to infiltrate Israel by land and sea in unexpected ways. At least 1,200 people have been killed in attacks by Hamas militants who crossed the security barrier separating Gaza and Israel. Also, 251 people were taken hostage. It was a natural step for Israel to respond to the attack by Hamas. It was natural for the world to sympathize with Israel and support its actions. But in the name of retaliation, Israel launched a series of unaccountable attacks. At the start of the

, he said Hamas operatives and shelters were targeted. But gradually the common people started to be attacked. From hospitals to schools, they began to destroy. As a result, about 60,000 people were killed in Palestine in two years, 17,000 of them were children.

According to the latest figures of the United Nations, at least 247 Palestinian journalists have been killed in the war. The number of journalists killed in Gaza is more than the total number of journalists killed in the American Civil War, the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, the Vietnam War and the Afghanistan War, according to a report by Brown University in the United States.

Only on Monday, 33-year-old Maryam Dagga of AP, Husam Al-Masri of Reuters, photojournalist Mohammad Salama of Al Jazeera, Moz Abu Taha and Ahmed Abu Aziz were killed. While they were reporting on the fourth floor of Nasir Hospital in Khan Yunis, Israel targeted the same floor in an airstrike. Two weeks ago, six journalists, including four from Al Jazeera, were killed in an attack by Israeli forces near Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.

Anas al-Sharif, Mohammed Qurayke, Ibrahim Zahir and Moammen Aliwa, Mohammed Naufal and Mohammed Al Alid were killed in the attack. Israel has also adopted a 'double-tap' style of attacking first and launching a second attack after rescue workers and journalists arrive at the scene.

The same thing happened at Nasir Hospital. His aim seems to be targeting rescue workers and journalists as well. In this way, the Israeli attack, which started with the natural aim of retaliating against Hamas, has today expanded to the shameful aim of killing even journalists.

Today, Israel has no immediate concern with Hamas, as Hamas has likely suffered unanticipated reprisals and losses. Israel is not worried about the innocent citizens of Palestine at the moment because for them the greatest search in the world has become food. Instead, the biggest threat to Israel right now is journalists.

Because, he captures the scenes of Gaza – how the children queuing for food were fatally attacked, how children lost their parents, how missiles fell on hospitals and schools? Palestine, especially Gaza, is hardly a land where human blood has not been spilled, a record journalist holds. This is why Israel is panicking. He finds it easier to kill journalists than to reconsider his mindless attack. For him, even the issue of safety of journalists and unobstructed reporting has become meaningless.

When the world did not raise questions about the massacre in Gaza in the name of retaliation, Israeli arrogance reached its height. His tendency to single-mindedly target even journalists has confirmed the war frenzy. Therefore, it is time for organizations and conscientious citizens around the world who are concerned about human rights, freedom of the press, world peace and security, treatment, education etc. to make their voices louder and clearer.
