Journalists around the world expressed outrage on Monday as Israel continued its assault on reporters in Gaza, and condemned what they called the media industry’s “failure” to take action.
Israeli forces on Monday killed Middle East Eye journalists Mohamed Salama and Ahmed Abu Aziz in a double-tap strike on Nasser hospital in the southern Gaza Strip.
At least three other journalists were among the 19 Palestinians killed in the attack, including Mariam Dagga, a freelance reporter who worked with several media outlets such as the Associated Press; Hussam al-Masri, a photojournalist with the Reuters news agency; and freelance reporter Moaz Abu Taha.
A sixth journalist, Hassan Douhan, was shot dead by Israeli soldiers in Khan Younis, according to the Gaza media office.
