The Government Media Office in Gaza said journalist Mohammed al-Munirawi was killed in an Israeli strike, bringing the number of journalists killed since the start of the war to 256.
Palestinian journalist Mohammed al-Munirawi, a reporter for Palestine Newspaper, was killed in Gaza, the Government Media Office announced on Wednesday.
His death brings the total number of journalists killed since the start of Israel’s war on Gaza to 256.
In a statement, the office said it “strongly condemns the systematic targeting, killing, and assassination of Palestinian journalists by the Israeli occupation,” calling on international journalist bodies to denounce what it described as “ongoing crimes against the media.”
Al-Munirawi’s killing adds to what press unions and rights organizations have described as a pattern of deliberate targeting of journalists and media workers by Israeli forces.

Many were killed while on assignment or inside their homes with family members throughout the two-year-long genocide.
The Media Office held Israel, the United States, and European allies—including the United Kingdom, Germany, and France—“fully responsible for the brutal crimes committed against journalists in Gaza.”
It urged international organizations and journalist associations to demand accountability, prosecute Israeli officials in international courts, and “apply real pressure to stop the ongoing assault and protect journalists working under unprecedented conditions.”
Al-Jazeera has documented numerous instances in which clearly identified journalists were killed or injured by Israeli strikes.
Gaza remains the deadliest place in the world for media workers, with repeated attacks on press vehicles, offices, and family homes since October 2023.
Since the beginning of Israel’s genocidal war, media watchdogs have described Gaza as one of the deadliest places in the world for journalists, with repeated strikes hitting press vehicles, offices, and family homes of reporters across the Strip.
