The media rights group says it has filed a third complaint to the International Criminal Court (ICC) concerning Israeli war crimes against journalists in Gaza.
The new complaint details eight new cases of Palestinian journalists killed “in the course of their work” between 20 December and 20 May, and one case of a journalist who was injured.
Reporters Without Borders, also known as RSF, has asked the ICC’s prosecutor to investigate Israeli forces killing more than 100 journalists since October, with the cases detailed in the new complaint including journalists Mustapha Thuraya and Hamza al-Dahdouh, who were killed in an Israeli drone attack on their vehicle on January 7, RSF said.
Antoine Bernard, RSF’s advocacy and assistance director said the organisation would continue to work to hold those responsible for killing journalists accountable, “in solidarity with Gaza’s reporters.”
