“CPJ
emphasizes that journalists are civilians doing important work during times of
crisis and must not be targeted by warring parties,” said Sherif Mansour, CPJ’s
Middle East and North Africa program coordinator. “Journalists across the
region are making great sacrifices to cover this heart-breaking
conflict. Those in Gaza, in particular, have paid, and continue to pay, an unprecedented toll
and face exponential threats. Many have lost colleagues, families, and media
facilities, and have fled seeking safety when there is no haven or exit.”
The
comprehensive list on the website includes the names and dates of the
journalists who were killed.
