Hamza al-Dahdouh, a journalist and cameraman for Al Jazeera, and Mustafa Thuraya, a freelance journalist, were killed in an Israeli airstrike in southern Gaza. Hamzas father, Wael al-Dahdouh, had lost his wife, two other children, and a grandson earlier in the war. The strike targeted their car while they were on their way to an assignment. Al Jazeera condemned the killing and accused Israel of deliberately targeting journalists. More than 75 journalists have been killed since the war in Gaza started.
