The latest images and videos from Samer Abudaqa’s funeral show his body being lowered into the ground and put to rest in the southern city of Khan Younis, Al Jazeera reports.

Dozens of people are in attendance, including journalists, to pay respect.

Journalists in Gaza are carrying a “human and noble message” for the world amid the ongoing war in Gaza, and will continue to work despite Israeli attacks, Al Jazeera’s Wael Dahdouh has said in a eulogy at Abudaqa’s funeral.

“We will continue to do our duty with professionalism and transparency,” he asserted, as mourners around him wept.
