Israeli strike kills five journalists in Gaza

# Five journalists were killed in an overnight Israeli strike on Christmas Day that hit their vehicle in Gaza. The vehicle, belonging to Al-Quds Today Television, was parked outside the Al-Awda Hospital. The Gaza-based television channel is affiliated with the Palestine Islamic Jihad militant group. The US-based non-profit group, the Committee to Protect Journalists, has said at least 141 journalists and media workers have been killed since October 7th last year, making it the deadliest period for journalists since the organisation started gathering data in 1992. Of those killed, 133 were Palestinians in Gaza.
