Gaza’s Government Media Office said that Israel’s onslaught in Gaza has killed 211 journalists, urging global support for Palestinian journalists following Israel’s deadly raid on a media tent, Al Jazeera reports.

Ahmed Mansour, who died from severe burns sustained in the attack, is the 211th media worker killed during Israel’s incursion in Gaza, according to the office.

“We call on the International Federation of Journalists, the Federation of Arab Journalists, and all journalistic bodies in all countries of the world to condemn these systematic crimes against Palestinian journalists and media professionals in the Gaza Strip,” the office said.
