GAZA CITY, Palestine 

Another Palestinian journalist was killed in an Israeli attack in the Gaza Strip, taking the overall death toll since last year to 192, local authorities said on Sunday.   

Gaza’s government media office identified the new victim as Maysara Ahmed Salah from the local Quds News Network, without providing any details about the circumstances of her death. 

The media office appealed to the international community and press organizations “to deter the (Israeli) occupation and prosecute it in international courts for its ongoing crimes” against Palestinian journalists. 

Israel has launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip following a Hamas attack in October last year, killing more than 44,400 people, most of them women and children, and injuring over 105,000. 

The second year of genocide in Gaza has drawn growing international condemnation, with officials and institutions labeling the attacks and blocking of aid deliveries as a deliberate attempt to destroy a population. 

On Nov. 21, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its deadly war on Gaza.
