JAKARTA - The latest journalist victim was Mohammad Khalifa, who died at the Nuseirat Refugee Camp, along with his wife and three children. The Government Media Office in Gaza mourned the death of a journalist's family on Friday, December 22 in an Israeli army air strike at his home in the central Gaza Strip.

The office said the number of journalists killed in Gaza had increased to 99 after Israel's assassination of Mohammad Khalifa.

Al-Aqsa TV belonging to the Hamas group said Khalifa was killed at the Nuseirat Refugee Camp, along with his wife and three children.

Since October 7, Israeli soldiers have waged destructive wars in Gaza, resulting in at least 20,057 deaths and 53,320 injuries, most of them being children and women.

This has caused major damage to infrastructure and unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe," according to Palestinian and international sources.

Last week, it was discovered that an Al-Jazeera Samer Abudaqa cameraman was killed in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, after an Israeli drone fired missiles at a school that was used as a refugee camp for civilians. Abudaga died after experiencing such severe bleeding. Ironically, Israeli forces banned ambulances and medical workers from providing assistance to Abudaga.
