At least 11 journalists killed in Israel-Gaza war

---

At least 11 journalists — nine Palestinian, one Lebanese and one Israeli — have been confirmed dead this week, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists. At least one Israeli journalist has been reported missing, and many others have been injured.

The committee is investigating additional reports of the journalists killed, wounded and missing in or near Gaza. On Friday, a Reuters videographer was killed and at least six other journalists were injured amid shelling in Lebanon, according to the committee.

Sherif Mansour, coordinator for the Middle East at the Committee to Protect Journalists, said journalists in Gaza were trying to get information out while also scrambling to evacuate and protect their families. Many have lost their houses and offices, and some are working in a hospital because it’s the only place where they can get electricity and internet.

“They are the most vulnerable, but they are also the most needed right now,” Mr. Mansour said. “They are our eyes on what’s happening.”
