The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate (PJS) has condemned Israel’s “serious and continued escalations” against media workers, saying Israeli forces killed at least seven reporters in the Gaza Strip last month alone, Al Jazeera reports.

They are Omar al-Diraoui, Saed Abu Nabhan, Ahlam Al-Taluli, Mohammed Bashir Al-Talmis, Aqel Saleh, Ahmed Al-Shiah and Ahmed Hisham Abu Al-Rus.

The PJS said Israeli forces also killed nine family members of Palestinian journalists in January and destroyed the homes of six of them.
