Abstract

The article focuses on the unprecedented dangers faced by journalists covering the Israel-Hamas War, which has resulted in the deadliest period for journalists in conflict since 1992. As of November 2, at least 35 journalists and media workers, primarily local to Gaza, have died since the war began on October 7, 2023, according to organizations like the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) and Reporters Without Borders (RSF). The article highlights the extreme risks journalists encounter, including targeted attacks and censorship, and discusses calls for investigations into the deaths of journalists under international humanitarian law. It emphasizes the critical role of journalists in providing accurate information amid high levels of misinformation during the conflict. [Extracted from the article]
