Israel kills another Palestinian journalist in Gaza

Palestinian journalist Mohamed Abd Rabbo and his sister Sumaya were killed this morning when the Israeli occupation army carried out an aerial attack on his apartment in Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, the Palestinian Information Centre reported.

In a statement, Gaza’s Government Media Office (GMO) said Abd Rabbo worked for Al-Manara Media Company, pointing out that his death brought to 172 the number of the Palestinian journalists killed since the Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip started on 7 October 2023.

GMO strongly denounced Israel’s systematic targeting and killing of Palestinian journalists, calling on the international community and its media organisations to put an end to Israel’s war crimes and genocide in Gaza.
