GAZA CITY - At least 92 journalists have been killed in the ongoing Israeli military campaign in the Gaza Strip since Oct 7, the government media office in the besieged Palestinian enclave said on Sunday.

The latest fatalities were journalists Rami Badir and Assem Kamal Musa, who was killed in Israeli raids during the past two days, Anadolu Agency quoted the office as saying in a statement.

The office did not provide details regarding the circumstances of the journalists deaths.

"By assassinating journalists, the Israeli occupation is trying to obscure the Palestinian narrative and attempt to obscure the truth, but it has failed miserably in breaking the will of our great Palestinian people,” the office added.

Israel has bombarded the Gaza Strip from the air and land, imposed a siege and mounted a ground offensive since Oct 7.

Palestinian Health Ministry in a statement said that the documented number of casualties in the Gaza Strip has reached 18,800. - BERNAMA
