Approximately 83 journalists were targeted and killed since the beginning of the Gaza war on October 07, the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate said in a statement.

The Freedom Committee of the syndicate reported that the evidence, data, and testimonies confirm that the Israeli military deliberately targeted journalists, constituting war crimes, Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.

The statement emphasized that the pattern of targeting extends beyond journalists themselves, affecting their families.

Hundreds of journalist families have tragically lost members as their homes were bombed in reprisal for their professional work, the same source noted.

The syndicate’s statement also highlighted ongoing Israeli crimes and violations in the West Bank, including persecution, arrests, restrictions on media crews, as well as the use of live ammunition, sound bombs, and toxic gas.
