Al Jazeera Media Network condemns in the strongest terms the targeted assassination of its correspondents Anas Al Sharif and Mohammed Qraiqea, along with photographers Ibrahim Al Thaher, and Mohamed Nofal, by the Israeli occupation forces in yet another blatant and premeditated attack on press freedom.
 
In a statement by the Israeli occupation force, admitting to their crimes, the journalists were targeted by a directed assault towards the tent where they were stationed opposite Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza. In which they were martyred. This attack comes amid the catastrophic consequences of the ongoing Israeli assault on Gaza, which has seen the relentless slaughter of civilians, forced starvation, and the obliteration of entire communities. The order to assassinate Anas Al Sharif, one of Gaza's bravest journalists, and his colleagues, is a desperate attempt to silence the voices exposing the impending seizure and occupation of Gaza.
 
As Al Jazeera Media Network bids farewell to yet another group of its finest journalists, who boldly and courageously documented the plight of Gaza and its people since the onset of the war, it holds the Israeli occupation forces and government responsible for deliberately targeting and assassinating its journalists. This follows repeated incitement and calls by multiple Israeli officials and spokespersons to target the fearless journalist Anas Al Sharif and his colleagues.
 
Anas and his colleagues were among the last remaining voices from within Gaza, providing the world with unfiltered, on-the-ground coverage of the devastating realities endured by its people. While international media was barred from entering, Al Jazeera journalists remained within besieged Gaza, experiencing the hunger and suffering they documented through their lenses. Through continuous, courageous live coverage, they have delivered searing eyewitness accounts of the horrors unleashed over 22 months of relentless bombing and destruction. 
 
Despite losing several journalists to deliberate attacks and working under constant threat, Anas Al Sharif, Mohammed Qraiqea, and their colleagues persisted in the strip to ensure the world sees the harrowing truth experienced by Gaza's populace.
 
While vehemently condemning these heinous crimes and the ongoing attempts by Israeli authorities to silence the truth, Al Jazeera Media Network calls on the international community and all relevant organisations to take decisive measures to halt this ongoing genocide and end the deliberate targeting of journalists. Al Jazeera emphasises that immunity for perpetrators and the lack of accountability embolden Israel's actions and encourage further oppression against witnesses to the truth.#FReepalestine #palestine #freefreepalestine

The Palestinian people continue to face severe humanitarian, political, and economic challenges under decades of occupation and conflict. Despite global awareness, conditions in Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem remain dire — with no immediate resolution in sight.

💥 Gaza: A Humanitarian Crisis
The Gaza Strip remains one of the most heavily restricted areas in the world. Frequent military escalations, airstrikes, and a tight blockade have left infrastructure in ruins.
Electricity is limited to a few hours a day.
Clean water is scarce — over 90% is considered unfit for drinking.
Healthcare is overwhelmed and under-equipped, especially after recent bombings.
Thousands remain displaced with limited access to basic shelter and food.

🧱 West Bank: Expansion & Restrictions
In the West Bank, settlement expansion and military checkpoints continue to erode freedom of movement and access to land.
Checkpoints disrupt daily life, education, and emergency services.
Home demolitions and land seizures are reported regularly.
Youth arrests and nighttime raids are rising concerns among human rights groups.
---
🗳️ Political Divide and Uncertainty
Palestinians are trapped between a fractured leadership and an indifferent international response.
The political divide between Hamas (Gaza) and the Palestinian Authority (West Bank) weakens internal unity.
International peace efforts have largely stalled, leaving Palestinians without a clear diplomatic path.
---
🌍 Voices of Solidarity Grow
Despite the hardship, global awareness is rising. Grassroots movements, social media campaigns, and international protests are amplifying the call for:
An end to occupation
Restoration of human rights
A just and lasting peace

🕊️ Final Thoughts
The Palestinian people continue to show resilience in the face of unimaginable challenges. Their daily struggle is not just a regional issue — it is a human issue. Awareness, advocacy, and ethical action remain critical in the pursuit of justice.#freepalestine #Palestine #HumanitarianCrisis #EndTheBlockade #CeasefireNow #PalestinianChildren

1. 🔥 Devastating Strike by Israel
Israeli forces launched a large-scale air operation, dubbed Operation Rising Lion, targeting over 200 strategic Iranian sites, including nuclear facilities (like Natanz) and major military installations. At least 78 people, including generals and scientists, were killed.
The attack weakened Iranian leadership, with the deaths of key figures and notable disruptions in the military apparatus. The intensity of the strikes also would have weakened Iran's influence over its regional allies such as Hezbollah and the Houthis.
