At least five Palestinian journalists have been confirmed killed in recent Israeli air strikes across the Gaza Strip.
Al Jazeera Arabic reported on Sunday that three had been confirmed dead, while Ramy Abdu, a Palestinian financial and human rights advocate, named two additional victims.
The journalists were identified as Aziz al-Hajjar, Nour Qandil, Abdul Rahman al-Abadleh, Khaled Abu Seif and Ahmad Al-Zinati.
Quds News Network says Hajjar died along with his wife and children when their home was struck in Bir an-Naaja, northern Gaza.
Qandil was reportedly killed in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, in an air raid that also took the lives of her husband and their baby daughter.
After being unaccounted for over two days, Abadleh’s body was found in the aftermath of an Israeli strike on al-Qarara, in the southern part of the enclave, according to Quds News.
Since 7 October 2023, Israeli assaults have killed over 230 Palestinian journalists and media professionals in Gaza, marking the bloodiest period on record for the press in any conflict.
