Twenty-six Palestinians were killed and 150 injured near an aid distribution centre in Rafah, Gaza, after Israeli tank shelling and gunfire, highlighting the ongoing humanitarian crisis and violence in the region amid attempts at a ceasefire.
A Reuters investigation, along with reports from Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, has concluded that an Israeli tank round killed Reuters video journalist Issam Abdallah near the Lebanese border in October. The investigation found that Israeli forces either knew or should have known they were targeting journalists. This marks the first public investigative findings of a journalist's killing in the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, which has been one of the deadliest for media in recent history. The Israeli military has not yet issued any findings and has repeatedly denied targeting journalists.
