Original: 263 Palestinian journalists killed since start of Israel’s war on Gaza: Media office
Gaza's media office says 263 Palestinian journalists have been killed since Israel's war on Gaza began, a figure circulated by Middle East Monitor. The toll, if confirmed, would make the conflict one of the deadliest ever recorded for members of the press. Rights groups and press freedom organisations have repeatedly called for independent investigations and protection for reporters covering the war.
Why now: The striking new journalist death toll renews scrutiny of press safety in the Gaza war.
