Source CPJ News: At least 61 journalists killed in Israel-Gaza war

Disclosure: CPJ is an independent, nonprofit, nongovernmental organization, established in 1981, based in New York, that accepts no governmental or intergovernmental funding and defends the rights of journalists to report the news safely and without fear of reprisal.

The first month of the Israel-Gaza war is now the deadliest month for journalists since CPJ began documenting journalist fatalities in 1992.

As of December 2, CPJ’s investigations showed at least 61 journalists and media workers were among more than 16,000 killed since the war began on October 7—with more than 14,800 deaths in the Palestinian territories of Gaza and the West Bank and about1,200 in Israel. This deadly toll is coupled with harassment, detentions, and other reporting obstructions in Gaza, the West Bank, Israel, and beyond.

Israeli forces have told news agencies that they cannot guarantee safety of journalists working in Gaza, where the war resumed on Friday after a one-week truce. Gaza has experienced multiple communications blackouts and journalists are reporting disruptions to phone and internet connections, particularly in the north.

CPJ is investigating all reports of journalists and media workers killed, injured, detained or missing in the war. The results of these investigations, which are based on testimonies of CPJ sources in the region and media reports, are published here. It is unclear whether all journalists were covering the conflict at the time of their deaths, but CPJ has included them in our count as we investigate their circumstances. The list is being updated regularly.

Source Wikipedia: The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) is an American independent non-profit, non-governmental organization, based in New York City, with correspondents around the world.
