On August 10, 2025, an Israeli airstrike targeted a journalists' tent outside Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, killing six journalists, including five from Al Jazeera. Among the deceased was Anas al-Sharif, a prominent and award-winning Al Jazeera correspondent known for his frontline reporting in Gaza. The Israeli military acknowledged targeting al-Sharif, accusing him of being a Hamas militant and leader of a terrorist cell, allegations that Al Jazeera and press freedom groups have strongly rejected. The attack has drawn widespread condemnation from the United Nations, including Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, the European Union, media organizations, and human rights groups, who described it as a grave breach of international humanitarian law and part of a systematic Israeli policy to silence Palestinian journalistic voices. Funeral services for the journalists were held amid growing international protests and calls for accountability. Videos and messages from al-Sharif, including tender moments with his daughter, have circulated widely, highlighting the human cost of the conflict. Since the start of the nearly two-year war, over 200 journalists have been killed in Gaza, underscoring the severe risks faced by media personnel in the region. The incident marks a rare instance where the Israeli military swiftly claimed responsibility for a strike that killed journalists during the ongoing conflict.
