Israeli Military Confirms Killing of Al Jazeera Journalist in Gaza Strike
The Israeli military confirmed it killed Al Jazeera journalist Ahmed Wishah in a Gaza airstrike, describing him as a "Hamas terrorist" without immediately providing evidence. Al Jazeera reported Wishah was killed in a drone strike targeting a house in the Bureij refugee camp. His brother, also an Al Jazeera journalist, was killed earlier in the conflict. Media rights group Reporters Without Borders noted over 220 journalists have died since October 2023, with at least 70 killed while working. The Israeli military denies deliberately targeting journalists.
