Prominent Arabic reporter Anas Al-Sharif was killed alongside fellow correspondent Mohammed Qreiqeh, camera operators Ibrahim Zaher, Mohammed Noufal and Moamen Aliwa in an air strike on their tent outside Al-Shifa Hospital.
The Israel Defense Forces confirmed its killing of Al-Sharif, claiming he was the head of a Hamas terrorist cell. Those allegations have been strongly denied by both Anas Al-Sharif and Al Jazeera.
Humanitarian groups including the Community to Protect Journalists (CPJ) and Human Rights Watch are accusing Israel of silencing journalists.
